| Research Abstract |
The Schottky Barrier Tunneling Transistor (SBTT) was proposed by Sze in 1968, which recently has been revived as a possible breakthrough of the physical limitation of conventional MOSFETs. We have proposed a non-doped SOI-MOSFET using Schottky contacts at source and drain junctions as a new type of the SBTT.By analyzing the equivalent circuit of the SBTT numerically, we have shown that the SBTTs will have a comparable driving current to conventional MOSFETs when low barrier metals are applied to source and drain. Based on the analysis, we have fabricated the SBTT where lightly doped p-type SOI is used for the channel in order to reduce stand-by current and titanium silicide is used for source and drain. The reason of our choice of the titanium suicide is that the Schottky barrier height is about a half of the bandgap of silicon, which suits for the realization of a symmetrical band diagram for electrons and holes. As a result, we have successfully realized both p- and n-type operation on the same substrate by only changing the gate material while using the common material for drain and source.
