Abstract :
We present for the first time Tunnel FETs obtained with a FDSOI CMOS process flow featuring High-K Metal Gate, ultrathin body compressively strained Si1-xGex (x from 0 to 30%) based channels, and Si0.7Ge0.3 Raised SD. We analyse the tunnelling improvements due to the different technological injection boosters: ultrathin body & EOT, strain, low band gap source, and low temperature SD anneal. For the first time, TFETs with large ON current (up to 428μA/μm) are demonstrated (with >;x1000 ION gain vs. SOI).
