The correlations between the threading dislocations and the low-frequency noise characteristics of the n-type strained-Si field-effect transistors are studied using the devices with different sizes. The device-area-dependent S-VG (power spectral density of the gate referred voltage noise) ratio of the strained-Si devices over the control Si devices obtained form geometric average can be understood by the modified carrier number fluctuation model with excess traps from the Poisson distributed threading dislocations. The equivalent trap number per threading dislocation extracted from the area-dependent S-VG ratios is similar to 85 for the strained-Si devices, and which results in similar to 4.2X degradation of the S-VG for the strained-Si device with the device area of 625 mu m(2).
