Two Terminal MOS Structure
MOSFET
• Now add source and drain to MOS capacitor. The new structure is called MOS transistor.
• Two types of MOS transistors : NMOS and PMOS
• The distance between S and D is called channel length L and lateral extent of channel is width W. Both W and L are very important parameters. The channel is formed through applied gate voltage between S and D.

N-Channel MOSFET Operation : I-V Curve (1)
NMOS in Linear Region :• if small drain voltage is applied, drain current flows through the conducting
channel.• As drain voltage increases, drain current also increases linearly with voltage. The
channel region acts as voltage controlled resistor. • This operation mode is called linear mode.
Lecture-3@IIIT-Allahabad
N-Channel MOSFET Operation : I-V Curve (2)NMOS in saturation Region :• As drain voltage increases again, the gate voltage is not sufficient to maintain
channel below the gate.• The charge and channel depth start to decrease at drain end. At Vds=Vdsat the
charge and depth at drain end become zero. • This point is called pinch off point. Beyond pinch-off depletion region forms
adjacent to drain and grows to source with increasing Vds.• This operation mode is called saturation mode. Near pinch-off point, high field
region forms between channel-end and drain. Electrons arriving at this end injected to drain region and accelerated to drain.

MOS Device Design Equations
The drain to source current of an nMOS device is given by
Ids = 0 ; Cut-off region; Vgs<Vtn
Ids = n/2 [2(Vgs – Vtn)Vds - Vds 2 ] ;
Linear Region; Vds < (Vgs – Vtn) Ids = n/2 (Vgs – Vtn)2 ;
Saturation Region; Vds (Vgs – Vtn);

V-I Characteristics
P channel• The physical structure of a PMOS is
identical to a NMOS except that the semiconductor types are interchanged, i.e.,
• body and gate are made of n-type material and source and drain are made of p-type material and a p-type channel is formed.
• As the sign of the charge carriers are reversed, all voltages and currents in a PMOS are reversed.
• By convention, the drain current is owing out of the drain as is shown. With this, all of the NMOS discussion above applies to PMOS as long as we multiply all voltages by a minus sign:
