Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. Due to the inherent defects in the structure of the device, there is a strong electric field peak at the edge of the gate near the drain when the device is working under negative pressure, which leads to serious bipolar off-state leakage problems
2. The device usually uses traditional ion implantation physical doping technology to achieve device source and drain doping, which will cause random impurity fluctuations in the device
These problems will lead to device performance degradation, reduced reliability, and increased power consumption

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronics, and particularly relates to a tunneling field effect transistor, which can be used in a low power consumption circuit system. [0002] technical background [0003] The rapid development of semiconductor technology has promoted the integration level of integrated circuit chips to double every 2 to 3 years, bringing about a huge leap in chip performance. However, with the further reduction of device size, the problem of static power consumption and switching power consumption of traditional MOSFET devices is becoming more and more significant, which cannot fully meet the requirements of future low power consumption applications and energy saving and environmental protection. As a new type of low-power semiconductor device that is expected to replace traditional MOSFET devices, tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) are based on quantum band-band tunneling mechanism, which can achieve s...
