Top-bottom gate coupling effect on low frequency noise in a Schottky junction gated silicon nanowire field-effect transistor

• In this letter, strong low frequency noise (LFN) reduction is observed when the buried oxide (BOX)/silicon interface of a Schottky junction gated silicon nanowire field-effect transistor (SJGFET) is depleted by a substrate bias. Such LFN reduction is mainly attributed to the dramatic reduction in Coulomb scattering when carriers are pushed away from the interface. The BOX/silicon interface depletion can also be achieved by sidewall Schottky junction gates in a narrow channel SJGFET, leading to an optimal LFN performance without the need of any substrate bias.
