Abstract

In this paper, TCAD assessment of 30-V class n-channel EDMOS (extended drain metal-oxide-semiconductor) transistors with DWFG (dual work function gate) structure are described. Gate of the DWFG EDMOS transistor is composed of both p- and n-type doped region on source and drain side. Additionally, lengths of p- and n-type doped gate region are varied while keeping physical channel length. Two-dimensional device structures are generated trough TSUPREM-4 and their electrical characteristics are investigated with MEDICI. The DWFG EDMOS transistor shows improved electrical characteristics than conventional device - i.e. higher transconductance ($g_m$), better drain output current ($I_{ON}$), reduced specific on-resistances ($R_{ON}$) and higher breakdown characteristics ($BV_{DSS}$).
