Self-heating effect modeling of a carbon nanotube-based fieldeffect transistor (CNTFET)
Authors
Abstract:
We present the design and simulation of a single-walled carbon nanotube(SWCNT)-based field-effect transistor (FET) using Silvaco TCAD. In this paper, theself-heating effect modeling of the CNT MOSFET structure is performed and comparedwith conventional MOSFET structure having same channel length. The numericalresults are presented to show the self-heating effect on the I–V characteristics of theCNT MOSFET and conventional MOSFET structures. Results from numericalsimulation show that the maximum temperature rise and the performance degradation ofthe CNT MOSFET are quite lower than that of the conventional MOSFET counterpart.These advantages are contributed by the good electrical and thermal properties of theSWCNTs. Therefore, SWCNT materials have a high capability for the development ofactive devices with low power dissipation and good reliability at high operatingtemperature.

By coating a thin layer of photosensitive polymer such as poly3-octylthiophene-2,5-diyl (P3OT), the Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor (CNTFET) provides an optical gating phenomenon [1]. It is called Optical-Gated CNTFET (OG-CNTFET or OGCNTFET). Compared to the conventional CNTFET, the OG-CNTFET reveals a right hand shift of the drain current vs. gate bias voltage.

Background Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistors (CNTFETs) have high charge sensitivity at room temperature [1]. By using this sensitivity, some nonvolatile memory devices have been demonstrated with charge trapping in SiO 2 gate insulator [2, 3]. Besides, a new design of synapse-like circuit requires a multi-level nonvolatile memory [4]. For this application, and according to its high charg...

In this paper, we propose and evaluate a novel design of a lightly doped drain and source carbon nanotube field effect transistor (LDDS-CNTFET) with a negative differential resistance (NDR) characteristic, called negative differential resistance LDDS-CNTFET (NDR-LDDS-CNTFET). The device was simulated by using a non equilibrium Green’s function method. To achieve this phenomenon, we have created...
