Question: 1 0 pts ( 2 pts for each ) For a long - channel nMOSFET with t o x = 2 . 4 n m

10pts (2pts for each)
For a long-channel nMOSFET with tox=2.4nm and Nsub=21017cm-3,
(a) Estimated subthreshold slop S in mV? decade not very far away from strong inversion. Notice that S may degrade in deep subthreshold region, which does not need to be considered here.
(b) To obtain Ion/Ioff =107, what is the minimal voltage swing?
(c) If S need to be less than 90mV? decade under the constraint of fixed tox=2.4nm, what is the constraint on Nsub.
(d) Derive the expression of gm and gmID in the subthreshold region when VDS is enough to put the nMOSFET into saturation.
(e) For the gate stack of HfO2SiO2(3nm5nm) with the same Nsub=21017cm-3, what is the S now?
