A unified core model of double-gate and surrounding-gate MOSFETs for circuit simulation

This paper presents a new core compact model of double-gate (DGFET) and surrounding-gate (SGFET) MOSFETs for circuit simulations. The current and the terminal charges are continuous with high computation efficiency and accuracy. Despite its accuracy, it retains the same simplicity of the industry standard transistors models. The drain current is worked out without invoking the charge-sheet approximation exploiting a quadratic symmetric polynomial interpolation of the charge in the channel. Apart this clear approximation, no other simplification is used to work out the drain current, the terminal charges, the potential, and electric field in the channel. The accuracy of the model is shown by comparison with the exact numerical solution and experimental data of the literature.
