Subthreshold-swing physics of tunnel field-effect transistors

Band-to-band tunnel field-effect-transistors (TFETs) are considered a possible replacement for the conventional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors due to their ability to achieve subthreshold swing (SS) below 60 mV/decade. This letter reports a comprehensive study of the SS of TFETs...
