The model considers drain/source extension zones and quantum confinement effect, it is identified by the simulation results of Sentaurus TCAD. Alterations of intrinsic total gate capacitance, gate-to-drain capacitance, gate-to-source capacitance with the channel width, height, doping concentration, the gate bias, the drain bias including and not including quantum confinement effect are researched, respectively. The results reveal effects of quantum confinement effect on intrinsic total gate capacitance, gate-to-drain capacitance, gate-to-source capacitance. The model will provide quantum corrections of intrinsic gate capacitance in the above-mentioned device. quantum confinement effect drain/source extension zones junctionless surrounding-gate nanosheet NMOSFET intrinsic total gate capacitance gate-to-drain capacitance gate-to-source capacitance Full Text Additional Declarations No competing interests reported.
