Abstract

Hole mobility (μ_h) enhancement by double gate (DG) mode in (001)/〈110〉 ultrathin-body SOI pFETs with sub-iOnm SOI thickness (T_SOI) is investigated. It is found μ_h in DG mode (μ_DG) is greatly enhanced in all the measured T_SOI in comparison with single gate mode. μ_DG of sub-10nm T_SOI exceeds even the universal mobility at high surface carrier densities. The higher μ_DG is attributed to average effective mass reduction due to a population increase in the light hole band. Subband calculations confirm this model. It is also demonstrated that higher μ_DG is further enhanced by uniaxial stress.
