Band-Offset Engineering for GeSn-SiGeSn Hetero Tunnel FETs and the Role of Strain

In this paper a simulation study of the effect of conduction and valence band offsets on the subthreshold swing (SS) of a double-gate tunnel field-effect transistor (TFET) with gate-overlapped source is presented. The simulations show that if the pn-junction and the hetero-junction coincide, the ban...
