    Abstract

    We propose the combination of magnetoresistance(MR) and Pseudo-MOSFET (Ψ-MOSFET) measurements as animproved method for the characterization of silicon-on-insulator(SOI) materials. Measurements were performed on ultrathin SOIΨ-MOSFETs with Corbino geometry by applying high magneticfield and substrate biasing. Severalmodels and extraction methodsare developed and compared for an accurate evaluation of electronmobility. In particular, the series resistance effect is removed byusing appropriate corrections. The MR mobility can be determinedat low or variable electric field. The MR mobility behavioris investigated as a function of effective electric field, temperature,and film thickness. The correlation between the MR mobility andeffective mobility, determined in Ψ-MOSFETs at zero magneticfield, enables a detailed analysis of the electron transport andscattering mechanisms in the silicon thin film.
