FinFETs and Other Multi-Gate Transistors

Download or read book FinFETs and Other Multi-Gate Transistors written by J.-P. Colinge and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-10-17 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the physics and properties of multi-gate field-effect transistors (MuGFETs), how they are made and how circuit designers can use them to improve the performances of integrated circuits. It covers the emergence of quantum effects due to the reduced size of the devices and describes the evolution of the MOS transistor from classical structures to SOI (silicon-on-insulator) and then to MuGFETs.
