- Abstract
- Tunnel field-effect transistor (Tunnel FET) with asymmetric spacer is proposed to obtain high on-current and reduced inverter delay simultaneously. In order to analyze the proposed Tunnel FET, electrical characteristics are evaluated by technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulations with calibrated tunneling model parameters. The impact of the spacer kappa values on tunneling rate is investigated with the symmetric spacer. As the kappa values of the spacer increase, the on-current becomes enhanced since tunneling probabilities are increased by the fringing field through the spacer. However, on the drain-side, that fringing field through the drain-side spacer increases ambipolar current and gate-to-drain capacitance, which degrades leakage property and switching response. Therefore, the drain-side low-kappa spacer, which makes the low fringing field, is adapted asymmetrically with the source-side high-kappa spacer. This asymmetric spacer results in the reduction of gate-to-drain capacitance and switching delay with the improved on-current induced by the source-side high-kappa spacer.
