N2 - Deformation potential (D ac), which determines the strength of electron-phonon scattering, is one of the most important physical parameters of Si. A longstanding unresolved question in D ac is that D ac for MOSFETs is considered to be much greater than D ac for bulk Si. In this work, we have demonstrated for the first time that D ac increases sharply at MOS interfaces within several-nm range. Because of the enhanced D ac at MOS interface, D ac for nanoscale SOI channel is expected to be increased owing to the high surface-to-volume ratio, which is verified by electron mobility calculations in extremely-thin SOI (ETSOI) MOSFETs and experimental stress-induced mobility enhancement in nanoscale SOI.
