I. INTRODUCTION
In fabrication of MOSFET, the minimum channel length
has been decrease incessantly. The inspiration after this
decrease has been an increasing interest in high speed devices
and in very large scale integrated circuits. As we go down to
65nm there seem to be no viable options of continuing forth
with the conventional MOSFET. Sever short channel effects
(SCE) such as VT roll off and drain induced barrier lowering
(DIBL), increasing leakage current such as subthreshold S/D
leakage, D/B (GIDL), gate direct tunneling leakage, and hot
carrier effects that result in device degradation [1], are
observed. The gate leakage current causes increased power

The first term is the dynamic power lost from charging and
discharging the processors capacitive loads. A defines the
fraction of gates switching, C is the total capacitance load of
all gates, the VDD supply and f is the gate switch frequency.
The second term is the standby power lost due to leakage
current, lleak.
Equation (2) shows that the Leakage current and the source
of static power consumption, is defined as the sum of
subthreshold and gate-oxide leakage. Subthreshold leakage
current depends on threshold voltage and supply voltage.
Equation (3) shows K1 and n are experimentally derived, W is
the gate width, and V is the thermal voltage and it increases
linearly with temperature. Gate-oxide leakage is less
understood than subthreshold leakage. In equation (4) K and
are experimentally derived. Tox represents oxide thickness and
as it is increased its effects reduces the gate leakage current
[3].
