Abstract
Most integrated circuits are fabricated in a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology, which features two types of transistors, an nMOS and a pMOS transistor. As the MOS transistor is the basic element of 90% of all integrated circuits, we will repeat some of the material in Part I, because of its importance. Basically, a MOS transistor has three terminals: a gate, a source and a drain (Fig. 5.1). The gate is separated from the channel region by only an extremely thin (t ox) insulating gate oxide.

Note: Not every reader has access to the published articles of microelectronic conferences and magazines. A lot of effort has therefore been given to refer to those publications that are directly accessible through web pages on the Internet. However, these data may be volatile because some owners update and change the contents on their web pages, so that some of the references below may only be accessible during a short time after the print of this book. Finally a lot more information on the various subjects can be found by searching the Web with the right entry, which can be easily extracted from the corresponding subject. Good Luck!
