Abstract

FinFETs with an amorphous metal gate (MG) are fabricated on silicon-on-thin-buried-oxide (SOTB) wafers for realizing both low variability and tunable threshold voltage (Vt) necessary for multiple Vt solution. The FinFETs with an amorphous TaSiN MG record the lowest on-state drain current (Ion) variability (0.37 %μm) in comparison to bulk and SOI planar MOSFETs thanks to the suppressed variability of Vt (AVt=1.32 mVμm), drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) and trans-conductance (Gm). Back-biasing through the SOTB provides excellent Vt controllability keeping the low Vt variability in contrast to Vt tuning by fin channel doping.
