Description

energy band diagram

The tunnel field-effect transistor (tunnel FET or TFET) is a transistor that operate by tunneling through the source/drain barrier rather than diffusion over the barrier. Tunnel FETs belongs to the family of so-called steep-slope devices which can switch on/off at lower voltages than metal oxide semiconductor FETs (MOSFETs) and are being investigated for ultra-low-power electronic applications.
