A theoretical description is given of the dependence threshold voltage, V/sub TH/, SOI MOSFETs on a wide range to top silicon layer thickness, t/sub s/, using both classical and quantum-mechanical methods. The effects become remarkable below critical thickness raise TH/ with decreasing s/. method cannot be applied in such thin s/ region, since classically obtained decreases monotonously even thickness.
