Analytical model and simulation‐based analysis of a work function engineered triple metal tunnel field‐effect transistor device showing excellent device performance by Ria Bose, Jatindra Nath Roy

“…The source side n + pocket in the proposed triple metal (TM) TFET device enhances tunnelling probability thus increasing on current and off current is controlled by another n‐pocket near drain side. Significantly lower subthreshold slope (less than 10 mV/decade), high transconductance (in the order of 10−4 S/μm), low energy‐delay product (24.601 fJ‐ns/μm) obtained for TM WFE TFET makes this device more suitable for digital logic and RF (Radio Frequency) application.…”
