Abstract

The invention provides a dual-axis tensile strain GeSn n channel tunneling field effect transistor (10) which structurally comprises a substrate (101), a source electrode (102), a drain electrode (104), a GeSn n channel (103), an insulation dielectric substance film (105) and a grid electrode (106). The source electrode, the n channel and the drain electrode form a vertical device structure. The lattice constant of a regional material of the source electrode is larger than that of the GeSn n channel (103). The GeSn n channel forms dual-axis tensile strain in the X face and the Y face, and the strain facilitates conversion of GeSn of the channel from an indirect band gap into a direct band gap, so that direct quantum tunneling happens, tunneling currents are increased, and device performance is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a biaxial tensile strained GeSn n-channel TFET (Tunneling Field-effect Transistor: tunneling field-effect transistor). Background technique [0002] With the further development of integrated circuits, the further reduction of chip feature size, and the increase of the number of devices integrated on a single chip, power consumption has become an issue that people pay more and more attention to. According to ITRS data, when the feature size is reduced to the 32nm node, the power consumption will be 8 times the expected trend, that is, with the gradual reduction of the feature size, traditional MOS devices will not be able to meet the demand in terms of power consumption (Nature, vol479, 329-337, 2011). In addition, the reduction in MOSFET size faces the limitation of subthreshold slope at room temperature with a minimum of 60mv / decade. Compared with MOSFETs, tunneling field effect transistors based on quantum tunneling effe...
