Abstract(in English) The RF characteristics of 70nm MOSFETs were measured and analyzed below liquid nitrogen temperature. Significant improvements in DC and RF performance were observed at cryogenic temperature. The transconductance (g_m) has the peak point at 25K due to carrier freeze out effect. The cut-off frequency (f_T) and the maximum oscillation frequency (f_) increase over a temperature range of 4K to 77K as the temperature decreases. A simple small signal sub-circuit model was used to understand the dependence of device parameters with temperature. The improvement in the cut-off frequency below 25K is because the extrinsic capacitance is relatively small at 4K. Results show that the temperature dependence observed for the cut-off frequency and the maximum oscillation frequency is also valid below liquid nitrogen temperature.
