Gallium nitride (GaN) based metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are promising for switching device applications. The doping of n- and p-layers is varied to evaluate the figure of merits of proposed devices with a gate length of 10 nm. Devices are switched from OFF-state (gate voltage, VGS = 0 V) to ON-state (VGS = 1 V) for a fixed drain voltage, VDS = 0.75 V. The device with channel doping of 1×1016 cm-3 and source/drain (S/D) of 1×1020 cm-3 shows good device performance due to better control of gate over channel. The ON-current (ION), OFF-current (IOFF), subthreshold swing (SS), drain induce barrier lowering (DIBL), and delay time are found to be 6.85 mA/μm, 5.15×10-7 A/μm, 87.8 mV/decade, and 100.5 mV/V, 0.035 ps, respectively. These results indicate that GaN-based MOSFETs are very suitable for the logic switching application in nanoscale regime.

In this paper, first, the impact of different gate arrangements on the short-channel effects of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors with doped source and drain with the self-consistent solution of the three-dimensional Poisson equation and the Schr¨odinger equation with open boundary conditions, within the non-equilibrium Green function, is investigated. The results indicate that the double-gate structure possesses a quasi-ideal subthreshold oscillation and an acceptable decrease in the drain induced barrier even for a relatively thick gate oxide (5 nm). Afterward, the electrical characteristics of the double-gate carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (DG-CNTFET) are investigated. The results demonstrate that an increase in diameter and density of the nanotubes in the DG-CNTFET increases the on-state current. Also, as the drain voltage increases, the off-state current of the DG-CNTFET decreases. In addition, regarding the negative gate voltages, for a high drain voltage, increasing in the drain current due to band-to-band tunnelling requires a larger negative gate voltage, and for a low drain voltage, resonant states appear

We investigate the effect of random dopant fluctuation (RDF)-induced variability in n-type junctionless (JL) dual-metal gate (DMG) fin field-effect transistors (FinFETs) using a 3D computer-aided design simulation. We show that the drain voltage (VDS) has a significant impact on the electrostatic integrity variability caused by RDF and is dependent on the ratio of gate lengths. The RDF-induced variability also increases as the length of control gate near the source decreases. Our simulations suggest that the proportion of the gate metal near the source to the entire gate should be greater than 0.5.
