Abstract:
In a particular embodiment, an apparatus includes an electron tunnel structure. The electron tunnel structure includes a tunneling layer, a channel layer, a source layer, and a drain layer. The tunneling layer and the channel layer are positioned between the source layer and the drain layer. The transistor device further includes a high-k dielectric layer adjacent to the electron tunnel structure.
Abstract:
A complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) device and methods of formation thereof are disclosed. In a particular embodiment, a CMOS device includes a silicon substrate, a dielectric insulator material on the silicon substrate, and an extension layer on the dielectric insulator material. The CMOS device further includes a gate in contact with a channel and in contact with an extension region. The CMOS device also includes a source in contact with the extension region and a drain in contact with the extension region. The extension region includes a first region in contact with the source and the gate and includes a second region in contact with the drain and the gate.
