  • Abstract
    A recent study to a tunnelling field-effect transistor (TFET) reveals interesting temperature behaviour. It is found that the TFET drain current temperature coefficient varies with the applied drain and gate voltage. Explored is a circuit which exploits this unique behaviour of the TFET to achieve temperature independent current biasing.
