Abstract

This paper proposes and investigates a short-channel MOSFET model down to a 0.1-μm regime for the frequency-domain analysis of the device operation through the harmonic balance technique. The efficiency and the preciseness of our method are validated by comparison of simulation results with the two-dimensional time-domain simulation tool, MEDICI. Along with the carrier transport model, the displacement current components are included in the terminal current equations for the extended analysis under external circuit environments.
