The dielectric engineered tunnel field-effect transistor (DE-TFET) as a high performance steep transistor is proposed. In this device, a combination of high-k and low-k dielectrics results in a high electric field at the tunnel junction. As a result a record ON-current of about 1000 uA/um and a subthreshold swing (SS) below 20mV/dec are predicted for WTe2 DE-TFET. The proposed TFET works based on a homojunction channel and electrically doped contacts both of which are immune to interface states, dopant fluctuations, and dopant states in the band gap which typically deteriorate the OFF-state performance and SS in conventional TFETs.

We study field effect transistor characteristics in etched single layer MoS2 nanoribbon devices of width 50nm with ohmic contacts. We employ a SF6 dry plasma process to etch MoS2 nanoribbons using low etching (RF) power allowing very good control over etching rate. Transconductance measurements reveal a steep sub-threshold slope of 3.5V/dec using a global backgate. Moreover, we measure a high current density of 38 uA/um resulting in high on/off ratio of the order of 10^5. We observe mobility reaching as high as 50 cm^2/V.s with increasing source-drain bias.
We report on terahertz radiation detection with InGaAs/InAlAs Field Effect Transistors in quantizing magnetic field. The photovoltaic detection signal is investigated at 4.2 K as a function of the gate voltage and magnetic field. Oscillations analogous to the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, as well as their strong enhancement at the cyclotron resonance, are observed. The results are quantitatively described by a recent theory, showing that the detection is due to rectification of the terahertz radiation by plasma waves related nonlinearities in the gated part of the channel.
We present an analytical device model for a graphene bilayer field-effect transistor (GBL-FET) with a graphene bilayer as a channel, and with back and top gates. The model accounts for the dependences of the electron and hole Fermi energies as well as energy gap in different sections of the channel on the bias back-gate and top-gate voltages. Using this model, we calculate the dc and ac source-drain currents and the transconductance of GBL-FETs with both ballistic and collision dominated electron transport as functions of structural parameters, the bias back-gate and top-gate voltages, and the signal frequency. It is shown that there are two threshold voltages, $V_{th,1}$ and $V_{th,2}$, so that the dc current versus the top-gate voltage relation markedly changes depending on whether the section of the channel beneath the top gate (gated section) is filled with electrons, depleted, or filled with holes. The electron scattering leads to a decrease in the dc and ac currents and transconductances, whereas it weakly affects the threshold frequency. As demonstrated, the transient recharging of the gated section by holes can pronouncedly influence the ac transconductance resulting in its nonmonotonic frequency dependence with a maximum at fairly high frequencies.
Superconducting field-effect transitor (SuFET) and Josephson field-effect transistor (JoFET) technologies take advantage of electric field induced control of charge carrier concentration in order to modulate the channel superconducting properties. Despite field-effect is believed to be unaffective for superconducting metals, recent experiments showed electric field dependent modulation of the critical current (IC) in a fully metallic transistor. Yet, the grounding mechanism of this phenomenon is not completely understood. Here, we show the experimental realization of Ti-based Dayem bridge field-effect transistors (DB-FETs) able to control IC of the superconducting channel. Our easy fabrication process DB-FETs show symmetric full suppression of IC for an applied critical gate voltage as low as VCG~+-8V at temperatures reaching about the 85% of the record critical temperature TC~550mK for titanium. The gate-independent TC and normal state resistance (RN) coupled with the increase of resistance in the supercoducting state (RS) for gate voltages close to the critical value (VCG) suggest the creation of field-effect induced metallic puddles in the superconducting sea. Our devices show extremely high values of transconductance (gMAXm~15uA/V at VG~+-6.5V) and variations of Josephson kinetic inductance (LK) with VG of two orders of magnitude. Therefore, the DB-FET appears as an ideal candidate for the realization of superconducting electronics, superconducting qubits, tunable interferometers as well as photon detectors.
Integrating negative capacitance (NC) into the field-effect transistors promises to break fundamental limits of power dissipation known as Boltzmann tyranny. However, realization of the stable static negative capacitance in the non-transient regime without hysteresis remains a daunting task. Here we show that the failure to implement the NC stems from the lack of understanding that its origin is fundamentally related with the inevitable emergence of the domain state. We put forth an ingenious design for the ferroelectric domain-based field-effect transistor with the stable reversible static negative capacitance. Using dielectric coating of the ferroelectric capacitor enables the tunability of the negative capacitance improving tremendously the performance of the field-effect transistors.
