Abstract: We report in this paper an extended bandgap broadening analytical model for quantum mechanical (QM) correction in MOS structures with sub-quarter micron feature size, which is applicable to both inversion and accumulation layers. Device simulation shows excellent agreement with the measured C-V data for MOS capacitors with oxide thickness of approximately 30 angstroms.
