Abstract

Complementary (p- and n-type) tunnel FinFETs operating with subthreshold slopes (SSs) of less than 60 mV/decade and very low off-currents (on the order of a few pA/μm) have been experimentally realized on the Si CMOS platform. Improvements in the SSs have been realized by optimizing epitaxial channel growth on heavily arsenic- and boron-doped source surfaces for purging interface defects at the epitaxial tunnel junctions. By improving the interface quality, SSs of 58 and 56 mV/decade and on/off current ratios (ON/OFF) of 2 × 106 and 3 × 104 (with VD = 0.2 V) were respectively obtained for p- and n- tunnel FETs (TFETs) simultaneously.
