The salient properties of charge flow (or current) along the
MOSFET’s inversion layer are shown to be analogous to a river’s flow in a
gravitational potential field, insofar as both are fundamentally governed by
energy conservation principles, and their laminar and turbulent conditions
determined by friction losses at shallow depths. We formulate an accurate model for a
non–uniform mobile charge density giving rise to a mean potential across an inversion layer of finite
extent, which we measure by a sensitive
experimental method …
