Abstract

The extensive research of aggressively scaled nano-electronic devices necessitates the inclusion of quantum confinement effects and their impact on performance. This work implements a set of multisubband phonon and impurity scattering mechanisms within the Kubo-Greenwood formalism in order to study their impact on the mobility in Si nanowire transistors (NWTs). This 1D treatment has been coupled with a 3D Poisson-2D Schrödinger solver, which accurately captures the effects of quantum confinement on charge dynamics. We also emphasize the importance of using the 1D models to evaluate the geometrical properties on mobility at the scaling limit.
