Asymmetry results from the gate’s shadowing effect when the S/D is implanted with a significant tilt angle in a standard MOSFET process with LDD.
Due to the asymmetry, the drain-LDD region is longer. This, along with a lower LDD dose, may result in a reduction in the electrical field close to the drain pinch-off zone.
It is demonstrated that there is an ideal range of LDD dosages where the asymmetric device has a higher figure-of-merit than the symmetric MOSFET construction in terms of breakdown voltage and cut-off frequency.
Using numerical process and device simulations, the impacts of varying the source and drain implantation tilt angle as well as the LDD implantation dose have been investigated.
An asymmetric MOSFET structure with a longer LDD area on the drain side is produced by a large tilt angle. Conclusion: For the asymmetric device, a too low LDD dose considerably worsens the DC characteristics. The asymmetric device, on the other hand, is likewise shown to have a larger breakdown voltage.
The Global Asymmetric MOSFET Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
Vishay Intertechnology introduced a 30V asymmetric dual TrenchFET power MOSFET in the PowerPAIR package using TrenchFET Gen IV technology.
The Vishay Siliconix helps to save space and simplify the design of highly efficient synchronous buck converters by combining a high-side and low-side MOSFET in one compact package.
This device offers lower on-resistance, higher power density, and higher efficiency than previous-generation devices in this package size.
In order to lower on-resistance without considerably raising gate charge, the SiZ340DT’s TrenchFET Gen IV technology employs an extremely high-density architecture. This minimises conduction losses and lowers overall power loss, enabling higher power output.
The effects of altering the source and drain implantation tilt angle as well as the LDD implantation dose have been studied using numerical process and device simulations.
A significant tilt angle results in an asymmetric MOSFET structure with a longer LDD area on the drain side. Conclusion: A too low LDD dose significantly impairs the DC characteristics for the asymmetric device. On the other hand, it is also demonstrated that the asymmetric device has a higher breakdown voltage.
In order to address the demand for high speed devices, the MOSFET has undergone substantial scaling down. Due to the device’s scaling down to the deep sub-micrometer realm, symmetric MOSFETs with LDD structures were unable to counteract the impacts of small channels. In order to boost device speed, asymmetric MOSFET design approaches were used.
In this study, two asymmetric MOSFETs with different junction depths and just LDD on the drain side are constructed and simulated using the device simulator (SILVACO).
