Abstract: We present a GaSb/InAs junctionless tunnel FET and investigate its static device characteristics. The proposed structure presents tremendous performance at a very low supply voltage of 0.4 V. The key idea is to the present device architecture, which can be exploited as a digital switching device for sub 20 nm technology. Numerical simulations resulted in an IOFF of ～8 × 10-17 A/μm, ION of ～ 9 μA/μm, ION/IOFF of ～1 × 1011, subthreshold slope of 9.33 mV/dec and DIBL of ～ 87 mV/V for GaSb/InAs JLTFET at a temperature of 300 K, gate length of 20 nm, HfO2 gate dielectric thickness of 2 nm, film thickness of 10 nm, low-k spacer thickness of 10 nm and VDD of 0.4 V.

Key words: band tunneling (BTBT), tunnel field effect transistor (TFET), junctionless tunnel field effect transistor (JLTFET), ION/IOFF ratio, low power, digital switching
