The relation between SS and FE-HZO thickness is also discussed. The NC-FinFET modeling is validated on standard 14nm FinFET. The feasible concept of coupling the polarization Hf-based oxide was applied, which were experimentally established with the validity of the negative capacitance effect. ? 2017 IEEE.Ferroelectricity; FinFET; Hafnium; VLSI circuits; Hysteresis free; Negative capacitance; Negative capacitance effect; Physical thickness; Sub-threshold swing(ss); Capacitance[SDGs]SDG7Negative capacitance FETs with steep switching by ferroelectric Hf-based oxideconference paper10.1109/VLSI-TSA.2017.79424662-s2.0-85023175409
