Abstract:

Abstract: In this paper, a novel tunnel field effect transistor (TFET) is introduced, thatdue to its superior gate controllability, can be considered as a promising candidate forthe conventional TFET. The proposed electrically doped heterojunction TFET(EDHJTFET) has a 3D core-shell nanotube structure with external and internal gatessurrounding the channel that employs electrostatically doping rather than ionimplantationfor creating the tunneling junction. The staggered type InAs/GaAs0.1Sb0.9heterojunction devices, considerably amplifies the band to band tunneling rate. Theeffect of device geometry and physical design parameters on the performance of thedevice are comprehensively investigated and cut off frequency of 200GHz, on/offcurrent ratio of 9.41×108 and subthreshold swing of 8.7 mV/dec are achieved. Thesensitivity analysis reveals that core/shell control gate workfunction and doping densityare critical design parameters that may affect the device performance. Moreover, theinsensitivity of off-state current to the drain voltage variation and channel length scalingsignifies the application of this device in nanoscale regime.

Performance evaluation of Carbon nanotube junctionless tunneling field effect transistor (CNT-JLTFET) under torsional strain: A quantum simulation study

In this paper, the performance of a CNT-JLTFET under different values of torsional strains of 0, 3, and 5 degrees has been investigated. Simulation has been carried out using non-equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) formalism in the mode-space approach and in the ballistic limit. The simulation results indicate that, under torsional strain, an increase occurs in the energy band-gap, and thus the...
