A new backscattering model giving a description of the quasi-ballistic transport in nano-MOSFET

A backscattering model suitable for compact modeling of nanoscale MOSFET is developed within the Landauer flux-scattering theory. To describe the quasi-ballistic transport, a new backscattering model based on the accurate determination of ballistic and backscattering probabilities along the channel is developed. This model is based on a careful analysis of transport in device using Monte Carlo simulation. This model allows us to display the main physical quantities along the channel and to accurately describe the quasi-ballistic transport and its effects on current-voltage characteristics.
