  • Abstract
    Because of the special p-i-n structure of the tunneling FET (TFET), many different composite transistors can be formed with careful device design by combining TFET with MOSFET. In this paper, we propose the special applications of TFET as memory devices. A novel capacitor-less DRAM cell based on floating junction gate (FJG) concept can be configured with TFET. In addition, several different memory cells containing TFET will be discussed.
