It is shown that the type of nonlinearity of the substrate current–voltage characteristic beyond the sidegating threshold changes from super to sublinearity as the sidegate-to-channel spacing increases. Based on this, it is concluded that the sidegating mechanism is a function of the sidegate-to-channel spacing. This conclusion is confirmed using a simple one-dimensional computational model.
