Two dimensional quantum and reliability modelling for lightly doped nanoscale devices by ElKashlan, Rana

“…Such a displacement of charge is equivalent to an increase in the effective oxide layer thickness, a growth in the threshold voltage, and a decrease in the current level. Therefore, using the classical analysis approach without including the quantum effects may lead to perceptible errors in the prognosis of the performance of modern deep submicron devices. …”
