摘要：
The stress and orientation dependence of FinFET performance is studied by parallelized 3D Monte Carlo (MC) device simulation. The long-channel mobility for holes in devices with < 110 >/< 110 > sidewall/channel orientation was found to double relative to the < 100 >/< 100 > configuration; electron mobility decreased by 20%. This agrees with recent measurements. In 15nm-FinFETs quasi-ballistic velocity overshoot is strongly enhanced by mechanical stress, leading to more than 10% increase in the on-current (ION). The wallclock time for computing ION with about one percent statistical error is less than ten minutes with 16 threads making MC viable for standard TCAD applications.
