N2 - Vertical In0.53Ga0.47As tunnel field effect transistors (TFETs) with 100nm channel length and highk/metal gate stack are demonstrated with high Ion/Ioff ratio (>10 4). At VDS = 0.75V, a record on-current of 20μA/μm is achieved due to higher tunneling rate in narrow tunnel gap In. 0.53Ga0.47As. The TFETs exhibit gate bias dependent NDR characteristics at room temperature under forward bias confirming band to band tunneling. The measured data are in excellent agreement with two-dimensional numerical simulation at all drain biases. A novel 6T TFET SRAM cell using virtual ground assist is demonstrated despite the asymmetric source/drain configuration of TFETs.
