Problems solved by technology

At the same time, the interface state will affect the electron mobility under the gate, which will greatly reduce the mobility under the gate and seriously affect the performance of the device. The industry also tries to avoid the etching method.

[0006] In order to obtain a smaller gate length and higher frequency characteristics, electron beam exposure technology is usually used. Although electron beam exposure technology can realize a gate length process of tens of nanometers, but because the electron beam spot is placed on the surface one by one during the exposure process For point scanning, each graphic pixel needs to stay for a certain period of time, which limits the speed of graphic exposure
