Abstract A novel n-type junctionless field-effect transistor (JLFET) with a step-gate-oxide (SGO) structure is proposed to suppress the gate-induced drain leakage (GIDL) effect and off-state current I off. Introducing a 6-nm-thick tunnel-gate-oxide and maintaining 3-nm-thick control-gate-oxide, lateral band-to-band tunneling (L-BTBT) width is enlarged and its tunneling probability is reduced at the channel-drain surface, leading the off-state current Ioff to decrease finally. Also, the thicker tunnel-gate-oxide can reduce the influence on the total gate capacitance of JLFET, which could alleviate the capacitive load of the transistor in the circuit applications. Sentaurus simulation shows that Ioff of the new optimized JLFET reduced significantly with little impaction on its on-state current I on and threshold voltage V TH becoming less, thus showing an improved Ion/Ioff ratio (5×104) and subthreshold swing (84 mV/dec), compared with the scenario of the normal JLFET. The influence of the thickness and length of SGO structure on the performance of JLFET are discussed in detail, which could provide useful instruction for the device design.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
