Trap Assisted Tunneling and Its Effect on Subthreshold Swing of Tunnel FETs

We provide a detailed study of the oxide- semiconductor interface trap assisted tunneling (TAT) mechanism in tunnel FETs to show how it contributes a major leakage current path before the band-to-band tunneling (BTBT) is initiated. With a modified Shockley-Read-Hall formalism, we show that at room t...
