Drain Induced Barrier Widening and Reverse Short Channel Effects in Tunneling FETs: Investigation and Analysis

In this paper, using calibrated TCAD simulations, we demonstrate how the performance of a Tunneling FET (TFET) can be improved by using a new phenomenon called drain induced barrier widening (DIBW) at the source-channel junction. Our results indicate that TFETs in which DIBW dominates exhibit a stee...
