Comparative Analysis of Control Coefficients on the Performance of CNTFET Under Different Parameters

Abstract

This paper deals with the performance of both gate and drain control coefficients to analyze the behavior of carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNTFETs) under ballistic conditions and based on the change of different parameter value, such as oxide thickness of structure and temperature variation. A thorough study of both gate and drain control coefficient effects on the performance of CNTFETs has been conducted under different temperature and oxide layers and the output of the device has been analyzed through different parameters. Higher values of control coefficient help to attain larger transconductance by the increasing temperatures. For a fixed value of control coefficient, 4[Formula: see text]nm thickness of oxide has a transconductance of [Formula: see text] 4.5 [Formula: see text] 10[Formula: see text] S/m. Smaller oxide layer thickness has higher slope of increment in transconductance value. ON-state current to leakage current ratio shows a steady state response toward increment of gate control coefficient. Also, increment of oxide thickness has an adverse effect on current ratio, while a linear decay of current ratio is observed with the increased value of drain controlled one. Drain-induced battery lowering (DIBL) effect decreases with the value of gate control one and increases with the drain control coefficient. In this way, the optimum value for both the control coefficients has to be considered in order to perform well.

Electrical and Electrochemical Sensors Based on Carbon Nanotubes for the Monitoring of Chemicals in Water—A Review

“…In more details, the electrical properties of chemFETs are derived from measuring its drain-source current I ds as a function of gate V g and drain voltage V d . From these curves are extracted synthetic parameters such as: (i) in the linear regime of I ds as a function of V d , the (gate-voltage controlled chemFET resistance (slope of I ds (V d )); (ii) the ratio between ON and OFF current levels (values of I ds when the semiconducting channel is respectively in its most conducting—ON—and most insulating—OFF—state); (iii) the transconductance (the maximum value of the first derivative of I ds (V g ), which is related to the mobility of the semiconducting channel); (iv) the threshold voltage (gate voltage value for which the semiconducting channel transitions from insulating to conducting); (v) the hysteresis observed between threshold voltage values or transconductance values during upward and downward sweep of the gate voltage [ 93 , 94 , 95 ]. Regarding the latter, this hysteresis is attributed in large part to the adsorption of water molecules on the device surface creating charging effect [ 96 ].…”

Morphological and mechanical properties of polyamide 6/nanodiamond composites prepared by melt mixing: effect of surface functionality of nanodiamond

“…The literature shows that research on PA6/ND composites is very sparse. 34 The objective of the study reported here was to explore the morphological evolution and mechanical properties enhancement of PA6 in the presence of ND. The primary focus was to examine the role of surface functionality of ND.…”

Improved Device Performance in CNTFET Using Genetic Algorithm

“…The tube between source and drain is called channel. 15 To understand this flow of electrons from source to drain, first we need to see all energy bands between the two potential sources. Figure 4 shows that different energy bands are just between source and well.…”
