Carriers and Current
Carriers always flow from the Source to Drain
NMOS: Free electrons move from Source to Drain.
Current direction is from Drain to Source.
• PMOS: Free holes move from Source to Drain.
Current direction is from Source to Drain.

IGFET
The dimension of SiO2 layer is about 0.02 to 0.1
micron.
Gate is isolated thus Insulated-Gate FET
Due to insulation the current flowing through the gate
terminal is extremely small of the order of 10^-15 A.
Drain is always kept as more positive than the
source.
The current flows from the Drain to Source
P-n junctions are kept under the reverse bias
conditions
Typically the Length of the device is from 1 to 10
micron.

MOS Transistor
structure
Polysilicon –Heavily doped noncrystalline silicon.
Polysilicon allows the dimensions of the transistor to
be realized accurately.
Gate Oxide – Silicon dioxide.
Thickness of gate oxide – 7 to 20nm.
No d.c. through gate.
Normally, p substrate is connected to 0V in digital
circuits and to negative voltage in analog circuits.

Symmetry
The transistor is symmetric: The Drain
(which is equivalent to a BJT’s
Collector) and the Source (which is
equivalent to a BJT’s Emitter) are fully
symmetric and therefore
interchangeable

All MOS p-n Junctions
Unlike a BJT transistor, in which one of
the p-n junctions is typically forwardly
biased, and the other reversely biased,
in a MOSFET all p-n junctions must
always be kept reversely biased!
- 43. Digital Integrated Circuits © Prentice Hall 1995Introduction
The MOSFET Channel
Under certain conditions, a thin channel can
be formed right underneath the Silicon-
Dioxide insulating layer, electrically
connecting the Drain to the Source. The
depth of the channel (and hence its
resistance) can be controlled by the Gate’s
voltage. The length of the channel (shown in
the figures above as L) and the channel’s
width W, are important design parameters.

REGION OF OPERATION
CASE-1 (No Gate Voltage)
Two diodes back to back exist in series.
One diode is formed by the pn junction
between the n+ drain region and the p-type
substrate
Second is formed by the pn junction between
the n+ source region and the p-type substrate
These diodes prevent any flow of the current.
There exist a very high resistance.
- 47. Digital Integrated Circuits © Prentice Hall 1995Introduction
REGION OF OPERATION
Creating a channel
Apply some positive voltage on the gate
terminal.
This positive voltage pushes the holes
downward in the substrate region.
This causes the electrons to accumulate
under the gate terminal.
At the same time the positive voltage on the
gate also attracts the electrons from the n+
region to accumulate under the gate terminal.
- 51. Digital Integrated Circuits © Prentice Hall 1995Introduction
REGION OF OPERATION
Creating a channel
When sufficient electrons are accumulated under the
gate an n-region is created, connecting the drain and
the source
This causes the current to flow from the drain to
source
The channel is formed by inverting the substrate
surface from p to n, thus induced channel is also
called as the inversion layer.
The voltage between gate and source called vgs at
which there are sufficient electron under the gate to
form a conducting channel is called threshold voltage
Vth.

MOS Transistor Current direction
The source terminal of an n-channel(p-channel)
transistor is defined as whichever of the two terminals
has a lower(higher) voltage.
When a transistor is turned ON, current flows from
the drain to source in an n-channel device and from
source to drain in a p-channel transistor.
In both cases, the actual carriers travel from the
source to drain.
The current directions are different because n-
channel carriers are negative, whereas p-channel
carriers are positive.

REGION OF OPERATION
Applying small Vds
Now we applying some small voltage
between source and drain say 0.3V.
The voltage Vds causes a current to flow from
drain to gate.
Now as we increase the gate voltage, more
current will flow.
Increasing the gate voltage above the
threshold voltage enhances the channel,
hence this mode is called as enhancement
mode operation.
- 58. Digital Integrated Circuits © Prentice Hall 1995Introduction
MOSFET Current-Voltage Relationships
•The DC gate current is always zero: IG = 0
•Therefore, when a channel is created, the drain
current equals the source current: ID =IS

Operation – nMOS Transistor
Accumulation Mode - If Vgs < 0, then an electric field
is established across the substrate.
Depletion Mode -If 0<Vgs< Vtn, the region under gate
will be depleted of charges.
Inversion Mode – If Vgs > Vtn, the region below the
gate will be inverted.
