description To reduce the power consumption and improve the device performance in scaled CMOS integrated circuits, transistors with steep subthreshold swing (SS) is highly desirable. The tunnel field-effect transistor (TFET) based on the band-to-band tunneling has been suggested as a replacement to conventional MOSFETs. In order to improve the device performance of TFET, enhanced carrier transport across the tunneling junction is crucial. In this paper, source-pocket Si TFET is presented and successfully fabricated by laser annealing. This TFET has enhanced lateral electric field across the source tunneling junction, resulting in a reduction of tunneling distance. The experimental data of the proposed paper, for the first time, shows steep SS (46 mV/dec at 1 pA/μm), excellent I ON / I OFF ratio (
