Overview
- Explains the physics and properties of MuGFET devices, how they are made and how circuit designers can use them to improve the performances of integrated circuits
- Covers the emergence of quantum effects and novel electrical transport phenomena due to the reduced size of the devices
- Describes the evolution of the MOS transistor from classical structures to SOI (silicon-on-insulator) and then to MuGFETs
- Presents descriptions of the technological challenges and options, including a physically based compact model

About this book
FinFETs and Other Multi-Gate Transistors provides a comprehensive description of the physics, technology and circuit applications of multigate field-effect transistors (FETs). It explains the physics and properties of these devices, how they are fabricated and how circuit designers can use them to improve the performances of integrated circuits.
The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) recognizes the importance of these devices and places them in the "Advanced non-classical CMOS devices" category. Of all the existing multigate devices, the FinFET is the most widely known.
FinFETs and Other Multi-Gate Transistors is dedicated to the different facets of multigate FET technology and is written by leading experts in the field.
