Design and Investigation of Junction-less TFET (JL-TFET) for the Realization of Logic Gates.

The demand for energy-efficient electronics has propelled the exploration of alternative transistor technologies, among which Tunnel Field-Effect Transistors (TFETs) have garnered significant interest as compared to MOSFETs, and our main focus is on getting a power-efficient device. This paper presents a comprehensive study on the utilization of TFETs for logic gate implementation, emphasizing their potential to revolutionize low-power digital circuits. TFETs offer a steep Sub-threshold Swing (SS) and can operate at lower supply voltages compared to conventional MOSFETs, making them ideal candidates for power-sensitive applications. We have designed and implemented the logic gates, including OR, NAND, AND and NOR gates, using a JL-TFET device. JL-TFET is implemented for OR and NAND functions by biasing two gates separately, and using the Gate-Source (Lov) overlapping method, JL-TFET is implemented for AND and NOR functions. These implementations illustrate that the distinct properties of TFETs, including ambipolar conduction and the tunneling dependency on Gate-Source/Drain overlaps, can be effectively leveraged to achieve compact logic functions.
