C-V curves derived from two MOSCAPs with the same gate area are compared below. The MOS-cap exhibiting curve b has (choose one: a thinner, the same, a thicker) oxide and (choose one: a lower, the same, a higher) doping than the MOScap exhibiting curve a. Briefly explain how you arrived at your chosen answers. Cox is the same. Cdep must be changing, which is why Cmin are different. Note that VT is also different.

The two CV curves in Fig. 3 are measured on two MOS capacitors of the same area and on the same uniformly doped Si substrate, where VGB is the voltage between gate to substrate. Sample I's gate oxide thickness is Tox1 and Tox2 for Sample II. The dielectric constants of SiO2 and Si are 3.9 and 11.7, respectively. (20%) (a) The measurements are made under high or low frequency? (4%) (b) The Si substrate is n-type or p-type? (4%) (c) If ToxI = 6 nm, what is Tox2(nm)?

NMOS C-V curves A, B, and C are the measured C−V curves for a MOS capacitor. For this problem, assume that the poly-Si gate is degenerately doped and that the substrate is uniformly doped. (Recall that degenerately doped means the Fermi level coincides with either Ec or Ev. ) (a) Is the substrate doped with n-type or p-type? (b) Point out which of the C−V curves are measured in the low-frequency, high-frequency, or deepdepletion modes? (c) Under what experimental condition can we get the deep-depletion C−V curve? (d) What do we call V1 and V2? (e) What do we call regime 1 , regime 2 , and regime 3? (f) Is the poly-Si gate doped n+or p+? (Hint: You can tell from the polarity of Vfb. ) Sketch the energy band diagram when Vg = V2. (Assume there is no oxide charge.) (g) Sketch the energy band diagram for Vg = V1. (h) Determine Tox. (i) Determine Wdmax . (j) Determine Nsub from the values of C1 and C2. (k) Calculate Vfb. (1) Calculate Vt.
