Over the past three decades, fire department response has expanded from fire prevention and fire suppression to include multiple other community services such as emergency medical services, hazardous materials response, and special rescue. Today, service

On the 60 mV/dec @300 K Limit for MOSFET Subthreshold Swing

April 26, 2010
Author(s)
Kin P. Cheung
The 60 mV/dec limit for subthreshold swing at 300K is generally considered a fundamental limit that cannot be defeated. The physical origin of this limit is revisited in this paper and the fact that this limit is in part determined by the density-ofstates
