Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Si-nanowire transistors (SNWTs) are promising candidates as extremely downscaled MOSFETs for the future Si-VLSIs. To understand the device physics of SNWTs and assess their performance limits, we have recently developed a new self-consistent and three-dimensional quantum simulator based on a direct solution of the Wigner transport equation, coupled with multi-dimensional Schrödinger-Poisson algorithm. In this paper, we present its validity by comparing with semiclassical Boltzmann and non-equilibrium Green’s function approaches. Further, we discuss on a scaling limit of SNWTs, and demonstrate that the influence of source-drain tunneling begins to appear notably as the gate length becomes shorter than 6nm and also that the semiclassical Boltzmann simulation without the source-drain tunneling underestimates a minimum gate length to make electrostatically “well-tempered” SNWTs.
