Comparative Performance Analysis of Multi Gate Tunnel Field Effect Transistors

Abstract

In this paper, analytical modelling and performance analysis of novel device structures such as single gate SOI Tunnel Field Effect transistor (SG SOI TFET), Dual-Material Gate TFET (DMG TFET) and Dual Material Double Gate TFET (DMDG TFET) are proposed. The performance of the three devices is studied and compared in terms of surface potential, electric field and drain current. The DMDG TFET shows better performance in suppressing leakage current and enhancing ION current than the SG SOI TFET and DMG TFET. The analytical models of the devices are found to be in good agreement with the results obtained using two-dimensional TCAD device simulator.
