Résumé
High-resolution mobility spectrum analysis has been employed to study the magnetic-field dependent geometrical magnetoresistance characteristics of planar FD-SOI MOSFETs with 10 nm thick transistor channel layer. It is shown that transport in the Si channel is due to two well-defined electron species. According to self-consistent Poisson-Schrdinger calculations, these species correspond to carriers in two distinct subbands within the Si channel region which arise from strong carrier confinement and volume inversion. The mobility peak of the first sub-band was found to occur under gate bias conditions that result in a minimum perpendicular effective electric field.
