You have surely heard of ‘Negative Capacitance’ or the word ‘NCFET’ in your electronic ventures, but maybe you don’t know exactly how to visualize it (NCFET) in a computer based software. If this is the case, don’t worry! IEEE EDS SB DU is proudly presenting its flagship event on this topic. The webinar will cover modeling and simulation of such devices.

Abstract of the Talk:
The ongoing scaling of CMOS technology is now reaching its limit, due to supply voltage reduction being restricted by the subthreshold swing (SS) of 60mV/decade achievable at room temperature owing to Boltzmann transport of the charge carriers. Concept of negative capacitance proposed to achieve a sub-60mV/decade SS is currently seen as one of the potential solutions to the problem. A “negative capacitance transistor (NCFET)” employs a ferroelectric material in the gate stack of a FET providing a negative capacitance and thereby an “internal voltage amplification” at the gate of the internal FET which helps in reducing SS. Several experiments have successfully demonstrated an improved SS with the bulk MOSFET, FinFET, and 2D FETs. The improvement in subthreshold characteristics is also accompanied with the advantage of an increased ON current relative to the reference FET as has been observed both in simulation studies and experiments. In this talk, our honorable speaker will discuss the physics and modeling of various NCFET structures and impact of this new transistor on circuits including processors.
