Abstract
JFETs used as input transistors for CMOS preamplifiers can improve the input sensitivity due to their lower 1/f noise. Cryogenic JFET's can be realized by increasing the channel doping concentration to prevent carrier freeze-out. This paper deals with the properties of fabricated cryogenic, CMOS compatible JFET's. Process parameters for a cryogenic JFET technology are presented. Static measurements of these JFET's between room temperature and 4 K made it possible to extract JFET model parameters Vp and β for circuit simulations. These measurement results are compared with the temperature dependence of mobility and ionisation. Noise parameters could be measured at different temperatures with various geometries and doping levels of JFET's.
