It is disconnected to reduce, however when the size reduction of device to a certain extent when will cause short-channel effect.Short-channel effect will lead to device
The control ability of part grid declines, and effect is reduced so as to cause the drift of threshold voltage and drain induced barrier, so as to cause device
Quiescent dissipation increases.At the same time, the device size of diminution will cause the electric field of device inside to increase, and increase hot carrier
It generates, reduces the reliability of device.
According to the applicant understood, in order to improve the short-channel effect of MOSFET, researcher proposes various measures.Document 1,

A kind of MOSFET with double section grid structures is gone out.As shown in Figure 1,1 is first segment grid metal, 2 be second segment grid metal, and 3 are
Grid oxide layer, 4 be source electrode, and 5 be source region, and 6 be substrate, and 7 be drain region, and 8 be drain electrode, and 9 be underlayer electrode.The structure is by using two
The characteristic of material of the kind with different work functions, improves the control ability of grid, and enhance the transportation characterization of electronics.But
It is since the manufacturing process of double sections of grid is very complicated, cost is higher, is not suitable for being applied in super large-scale integration.

Pipe.As shown in Fig. 2, 1 is grid, 2 be grid oxide layer, and 3 be source region, and 4 be channel region, and 5 be drain region, and 6 be substrate.The device increases
The quantity of grid, and by raceway groove three dimensional stress so that effective channel width of device improves the control of grid while increase
Ability, therefore current driving ability is increased, and restrained effectively short-channel effect.However due under channel dimensions
Drop, increases the electric field strength of device inside, to reduce the reliability of device.

There are PN junction, manufacturing process is relatively simple.The raceway groove and source-drain area of the structure all need doping same type and dense
Impurity, however carrier fluctuating effect so that device inside carrier concentration profile is inconsistent, limits the extensive of the device
Using.

Raceway groove electricity of the conventional double-gate structure with gradual change channel thickness double-gate structure proposed by the invention is compared in the figure 7
Gesture is distributed.When device channel length shortens, the potential in drain region 6 will influence the Potential Distributing of channel region 5, usually, with
The shortening of channel length, groove potential will be lifted, therefore device is opened required threshold voltage and will be reduced.And potential
Raising will lead to the reduction of the potential barrier between source region 4 and channel region 5, to influence the Sub-Threshold Characteristic of device, device leakage
Electricity increases, and then quiescent dissipation increases.As shown in Figure 7, the groove potential of gradual change channel thickness double-gate structure is than conventional double grid knot
