Extraction of Isothermal Condition and Thermal Network in UTBB SOI MOSFETs

In this letter, we present a thermal network extraction methodology to characterize self-heating effect using two-port RF measurements. We show the technique of determining isothermal condition using only the self-heating (thermal) dominated range of the spectrum. We use a self-consistent self-heating extraction scheme using both the real and imaginary parts of drain port admittance parameters. Appropriate thermal network is investigated, and a large amount of temperature rise due to self-heating is confirmed for short channel silicon-on-insulator MOSFETs with ultrathin body and buried oxide.
