Erbium silicided schottky source/drain silicon nanowire N-metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors

Schottky source/drain (S/D) N-metal–oxide–semiconductor-field-effect transistor (MOSFET) have been fabricated using a simplified top down process with silicon nanowires (SiNW) as the channel body and ErSi2-x as the metal silicide S/D. Despite the use of a thick buried oxide (BOX) layer as the gate d...
