| Abstract |
|
Moore's law and the scaling theory have been the guiding principle for the semiconductor industry to accomplish its
rapid progress and persistent growth. Semiconductor chips had been continuously benefited from the device scaling
by simultaneously achieving higher density, higher performance and lower power consumption until they reached
the 100 nm technology node. However, once the silicon technology exceeded this point, i.e. in sub-100 nm nodes,
some important device parameters have started to diverge from the scaling theory, such as threshold voltages and
leakage currents.
