Abstract:The effect of the work-function variation (WFV) of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) gates on a monolithic 3D inverter (M3DINV) structure is investigated in the current paper. The M3DINV has a structure in which MOSFETs are sequentially stacked. The WFV effect of the top- and bottom-tier gates on the M3DINV is investigated using technology computer-aided design (TCAD) and a Monte-Carlo sampling simulation of TCAD. When the interlayer dielectric thickness (TILD) changes from 5 to 100 nm… Show more
