The experimental investigation carried out the strained Ge (110) p-type tunneling field-effect transistor, and it resulted in the current enhancement of x2.9 BTBT in the < 112 > direction, as compared with Si < 110 > / (100) due to a small band gap. In addition, the high ON/OFF current ratio, with an ON current similar to 1 mu A/mu m and an OFF current similar to 10 pA/mu m, and the well control for leakage current without SOI substrate were obtained. The anisotropic effect of tunneling directions for strained Ge on (110) orientation was discussed and explained as due to effective reduced mass
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
