摘要
In this paper, a novel tunnel field-effect transistor (TFET) has been demonstrated. The proposed TFET features a SiGe channel, a fin structure and an elevated drain to improve its electrical performance. As a result, it shows high-level ON-state current (I-ON) and low-level OFF-state current (I-OFF); ambipolar current (I-AMB). In detail, its I-ON is enhanced by 24 times more than that of Si control group and by 6 times more than of SiGe control group. The I-AMB can be reduced by up to 900 times compared with the SiGe control group. In addition, technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulation is performed to optimize electrical performance. Then, the benchmarking of ON/OFF current is also discussed with other research group's results.
