  3. Voltage Drops in the MOS System • In general, where qVFB = FMS = FM – FS Vox is the voltage dropped across the oxide (Vox = total amount of band bending in the oxide) fsis the voltage dropped in the silicon (total amount of band bending in the silicon) • For example: • When VG = VFB, Vox = fs = 0, i.e. there is no band bending EE130/230M Spring 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 3

  4. MOS Band Diagrams for n-type Si Decrease VG toward more negative values  the gate electron energy increases relative to that in the Si • Inversion • VG < VT • Surface becomes p-type decrease VG decrease VG • Accumulation • VG > VFB • Electrons accumulate at surface • Depletion • VG < VFB • Electrons repelled from surface EE130/230M Spring 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 4

  5. MOS Band Diagrams for p-type Si increase VG increase VG VG = VFB VG < VFB VT > VG> VFB EE130/230M Spring 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 5

  9. Depletion Width W (p-type Si) • Depletion Approximation: The surface of the Si is depleted of mobile carriers to a depth W. • The charge density within the depletion region is • Poisson’s equation: • Integrate twice, to obtain fS: To find fs for a given VG, we need to consider the voltage drops in the MOS system… EE130/230M Spring 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 9

  11. Surface Potential in Depletion (p-type Si) • Solving for fS, we have EE130/230M Spring 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 11

  12. Threshold Condition (VG = VT) • When VG is increased to the point where fs reaches 2fF, the surface is said to be strongly inverted. This is the threshold condition. VG = VT • (The surface is n-type to the same degree as the bulk is p-type.) EE130/230M Spring 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 12

  15. + + + + + + - - - - - - Strong Inversion (p-type Si) As VG is increased above VT, the negative charge in the Si is increased by adding mobile electrons (rather than by depleting the Si more deeply), so the depletion width remains ~constant at W = WT WT r(x) M O S GATE x + VG _ p-type Si Significant density of mobile electrons at surface (surface is n-type) EE130/230M Spring 2013 Lecture 16, Slide 15
