Abstract :
Current microelectronics technology relies on continued shrinkage of transistor features. At a certain point in the miniaturization drive, conventional transistors will behave differently with different current conduction mechanisms. This paper sheds a light on how electrical conduction takes place in a nanoscale transistor.
