- 論文の詳細を見る
It is demonstrated that the appropriate external mechanical stress applied by the conventional IC chip’s package straining can enhance device and circuit performance. A drain current enhancement of 4.9% at saturation is observed for 90-nm-node n-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (nMOSFET) under a biaxial tensile strain of 0.096%. The current enhancement is nearly independent of gate width for 90-nm-node logic devices. Moreover, there is a 2.3% speed enhancement for a 90 nm-node logic ring oscillator using a parallel layout under the same biaxial tensile strain of 0.096%.
