Abstract
FinFET is a promising substitute to conventional MOSFET which has reached
its limits as it has higher leakage for too little performance enhancement. It is
being recommended as the basis for future IC technologies because of its
power/performance benefits, scalability, better control over short channel
effects etc. But the complexity of structures affect the performance of the
device. The reduction of thickness of gate dielectric below 2nm, which is close
to physical limit has led to a huge increase in gate leakage current due to
tunneling effect. On further scaling, the leakage current through SiO2 which is
currently used as dielectric is intolerable due to high power consumption and
low breakdown voltage. In this paper, the working of double gate bulk FinFET
is simulated using HfO2 and ZnO as dielectric materials using TCAD tool.
Besides this, capacitance extraction has also being done for the two different
