Abstract

Electron transport properties of strained-Si on relaxed Si1-xGexchannel MOSFETs have been studied using a Monte Carlo simulator. The steady-and non-steady-state high-longitudinal field transport regimes have been described in detail. Electron-velocity-overshoot effects are also studied in deep-submicron strained-Si MOSFETs, where they show an improvement over the performance of their normal silicon counterparts.
