Abstract

In the simulation based research of aggressively scaled CMOS transistors, it is mandatoryto combine advanced transport simulators and quantum confinement effects with atomistic simulations which accurately reproduce the electronic structure at the nanometer scale. This work investigates the impact of cross-section dependent effective masses, obtained from atomistic simulations, on the mobility in Si nanowire transistors (NWTs). For the transport simulations, weuse the Kubo-Greenwood formalism with a set of multisubband phonon, surface roughness, and impurity scattering mechanisms.
