\section{Nanometric MOS}
\subsection{Strained silicon}
For N-MOS, increase distance between atoms,
for P-MOS, decrease the distance.
this improves mobility.
\subsection{Velocity saturation}
In the case of high electric fields, the velocity of the electrons saturates (Short-Channel-Effect).
\begin{equation}
I_D = \begin{cases}
W Q_I(x)v_x(x) & : v=\mu E \\
W C_{ox} \mu v_{sat}\left(V_{GS}-V_T\right) & : \text{saturation}
\end{cases}
\end{equation}
With the `new' saturation voltage
\begin{equation}
V_{D,sat} = \left(V_{GS}-V_T\right)/m \to \sqrt{2v_{sat}L/m\mu}
\end{equation}
where $m$ is a non-ideality constant.
Note that we completely lose the dependence on L for the current.
Essentially $\alpha=1$ for complete saturation and $\alpha=2$ for long channel:
\begin{equation}
I_D\bigg|_{V_{DS}=V_{DD}} \sim (V_{GS}-V_T)^\alpha \qquad :\ 1< \alpha <2
\end{equation}
\subsection{Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI)}
PD SOI:
\begin{itemize}
\item Body thicker than channel depletion width
\item Body voltage floating
\item Depends on charge injected into bulk
\item History effect changes $V_T$
\end{itemize}
FD SOI:
\begin{itemize}
\item Body thinner than channel depletion width
\item Fixed body charge
\item Fixed body voltage
\item Hard to manufacture
\item Not used yet
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Partially depleted SOI}
\begin{itemize}
\item[+] simolar to bulk-Si
\item[+] no coupling
\item[-] SCE
\item[-] floating body
\item[-] kink effect
\item[-] dynamic over- undershoots
\item[-] self heating
\end{itemize}
\paragraph{Floating body effect}
Kink effect because of impact ionization near the drain.
Holes are swept into the neutral body, collecting at the source junction.
\begin{equation}
T_{SOI}> \sqrt{\frac{2\varepsilon_{si}\cdot2\phi_F}{qN_{Body}}}
\end{equation}
\subsubsection{Fully depleted SOI}
\begin{itemize}
\item[+] Excellent ctrs of SCE
\item[+] no floating body
\item[+] Less parasitic capacitance
\item[+] less junction leakage
\item[+] Quasi-ideal subthreshold swing
\item[-] $V_T$ sensitive to SOI thickness
\item[-] Self heating
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Why bother with SOI}
By reducing the thickness of the channel, we reduce the SCE,
since the gate can better control the channel.

The aim of this summary is to provide a denser overview of the course material.
Specifically, it is intended to be used as a reference for the exam,
which is why it has only few remarks and focuses mainly on equations with little regard for how they were derived.
