The subthreshold swing of such SB-MOSFETs reaches 69 mV/dec. Emphasis is placed on the capacitance-voltage analysis of p-type SB-MOSFETs. According to the measurements of gate-to-source capacitance ${C}_{\mathrm{gs}}$ with respect to ${V}_{\mathrm{gs}}$ at various ${V}_{\mathrm{ds}}$, we find that a maximum occurs at the accumulation regime due to the most imbalanced charge distribution along the channel. At each ${C}_{\mathrm{gs}}$ peak, the difference between ${V}_{\mathrm{gs}}$ and ${V}_{\mathrm{ds}}$ is equal to the Schottky barrier height (SBH) for NiSi 2 on highly doped silicon, which indicates that the critical condition of channel pinching off is related with SBH for source/drain on channel. The SBH for NiSi 2 on highly doped silicon can affect the pinch-off voltage and the saturation current of SB-MOSFETs. %F PUB:(DE-HGF)16 %9 Journal Article %U <Go to ISI:>//WOS:000410696400064 %R 10.1088/0256-307X/34/7/078501 %U https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/859081
