Analysis on density of states and I_ON/I_OFF ratio of GaN/GaN-graphene nanoribbon tunnel FET for enhanced bio-sensing applications

Abstract This research introduces a new analytical model that studies the effect of ferro-dielectric on the operational performance of TFETs doped with halogens. The effect of source and drain depletions, voltage-drain & gate, thickness and capacitance of gate insulator are all investigated in this study. Accurate measurements of the surface potential are required to ascertain the transconductance, gate-to-drain capacitance, and lateral electric field of the device. Our model, which employs Ferroelectric Halo-Doped double gate (FHDD)-gated device designs, has been demonstrated to produce results that nearly match those produced from TCAD simulations. This was accomplished by doing a comparative analysis of the outcomes derived from both sets of simulations. Furthermore, the performance of the suggested structure of TFET, which integrates a dielectric of Fe and GaN heterostructure, surpasses that of other similar devices (fT) in terms of ON current, ON/OFF ratio, transconductance, and cut-off frequency. A ferroelectric dielectric was used to create a ferroelectric heterostructure. This study also centers on the creation and application of a graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (GNR-TFET) to detect sugar molecules, specifically fructose, xylose, and glucose. The detecting signal is generated by utilizing the fluctuation in the electrical current of the GNR-TFET caused by the presence of individual sugar molecules. The GNR-TFET exhibits noticeable variations in the density of states, transmission spectrum, and current when exposed to individual sugar molecules. The sensor under investigation is being developed and examined using a combination of semi-empirical modeling and non-equilibrium Green’s functional theory (SE + NEGF). According to the research, the modified GNR TFET has the ability to quickly and accurately detect individual sugar molecules in real-time.
