For n-channel SSDTs (N-SSDTs) using DySi/sub 2-x/ S/D , I/sub on//I/sub off/ can reach /spl sim/10/sup 5/ at V/sub ds/ of 0.2 V with two subthreshold slopes of 80 and 340 mV/dec. The low-temperature ...

In downscaled poly-Si gate MOSFET devices reliability margin is gained by progressive wearout. When the poly-Si gate is replaced with a metal gate, the slow wearout phase observed in ultrathin SiON ...
