Towards high performance sub-10nm finW bulk FinFET technology

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

We demonstrate the effectiveness and limitations of critical performance elements in silicon channel bulk finFET CMOS devices featuring embedded Source/Drain (e_SD) dual epi. Further scaling of the fin width below 10nm is shown to impact both the access resistance and S/D overlap capacitances while the mobility behavior for both nMOS and pMOS devices further degrades. Epitaxial S/D regrowth options are optimized to demonstrate ring-oscillator functionality for fin width down to ∼4nm.
