Abstract
Floating body effects in 0.15 μm partially-depleted silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFETs are studied at voltages below 1 V. Impact ionization takes place at the drain potential below the band gap energy, causing large transient drain currents even when the supply voltage is less than 1 V as the device is scaled. Thus, the floating body effects remain a serious problem even when the supply voltage is reduced to below 1 V.
