摘要
The practical use of tunnel field-effect transistors is retarded by the low on-state current. In this paper, the energy-band engineering of InAs/Si heterojunction and novel device structure of source-pocket concept are combined in a single tunnel field-effect transistor to extensively boost the device performance. The proposed device shows improved tunnel on-state current and subthreshold swing. In addition, analytical potential model for the proposed device is developed and tunneling current is also calculated. Good agreement of the modeled results with numerical simulations verifies the validation of our model. With significantly reduced simulation time while acceptable accuracy, the model would be helpful for the further investigation of TFET-based circuit simulations.
