This approach allowed us to develop a fully three-dimensional (3-D) NEGF based simulator and to investigate fundamental and design aspects related to van der Waals tunnel transistors, such as: (a) area and edge tunneling components, and scaling with device area; (b) impact of top gate alignment and back-oxide thickness on the device performance; (c) influence of inelastic phonon scattering on the device operation and sub-threshold swing; (d) benchmarking of switching energy and delay. © 2015 IEEE.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessA computational study of van der Waals tunnel transistors: Fundamental aspects and design challengesConference Object2016-February12.05.200112.05.200410.1109/IEDM.2015.7409684Q2N/A
