Tunnel fet based non-volatile memory boosted by vertical band-to-band tunneling

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Saurabh Tomar, Arnab Biswas

A tunnel field effect transistor (TFET), including a source region, a gate region, a channel region, and a drain region, the gate region including a gate stack, wherein an area of the source region that is facing the channel region is overlapped by the gat ...

Benchmarking of Homojunction Strained-Si NW Tunnel FETs for Basic Analog Functions

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Cem Alper, Arnab Biswas, Florin Udrea

This paper reports a compact ambipolar model for homojunction strained-silicon (sSi) nanowire (NW) tunnel FETs (TFETs) capable of accurately describing both I-V and G-V characteristics in all regimes of operation, n- and p-ambipolarity, the superlinear ons ...

A Steep-Slope Transistor Combining Phase-Change and Band-to-Band-Tunneling to Achieve a sub-Unity Body Factor

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Anna Krammer, Teodor Rosca, Josef Andreas Schuler, Wolfgang Amadeus Vitale, Cem Alper, Arnab Biswas, Emanuele Andrea Casu, Qun Zhao

Steep-slope transistors allow to scale down the supply voltage and the energy per computed bit of information as compared to conventional field-effect transistors (FETs), due to their sub-60 mV/decade subthreshold swing at room temperature. Currently pursu ...
