Abstract In this article, a charge-plasma (CP)-based double gate schottky barrier FET structure has been investigated using dielectric controlled biomolecule sensor. The use of Hafnium as a charge plasma at the source side encourages an n+ charge plasma in an un-doped silicon region, which expressively decreases the Schottky barrier thickness. The oxide below the Metal gate M1 and M2 is etched out to create nanogap openings for biomolecule finding. Here, the existence of molecules is categorized by the modification in oxide material inside the nanogap and the related charge densities, hence, to controls the tunneling thickness at the Metal-source-silicon channel interface, also with the help of plasma charges in an intrinsic-Si film. This paper is mainly focused on the fundamental physics of the proposed structure and approximations of their relative sensitivity detecting enactment. The sensing enactment has been assessed for charged biomolecules and charge-neutral biomolecules by widespread device simulation, and the special properties of the biomolecule. The proposed device improves its control over the tunneling region and this has been used for the sensing, ensuing to larger on-state drain current (Ids) sensitivity for biomolecule. Hence, the gate voltage is recognised as the active design parameters for efficient reduction. Moreover, the sensing of the SB FET-based biosensor threshold voltage (Vth), abnormality in the on-current (Ion), and Ion/Ioff ratio has been shown. Also, the charge-plasma (CP)-based double gate schottky barrier FET simulations calibrated with experimental results. Hence, the relative change in Ion using charge-plasma (CP)-based double gate schottky barrier FET biosensor maintain improved detecting ability for biomolecule recognition.

Abstract In this article, a distinctive charge plasma (CP) technique is employed to design two doping-less dual gate tunnel field effect transistors (DL-DG-TFETs) with Si0.5Ge0.5 and Si as source material. The CP methodology resolves the issues of random doping fluctuation and doping activation. The analog and RF performance has been investigated for both the proposed devices i.e. Si0.5Ge0.5 source DL-DG-TFET and Si-source DL-DG-TFET in terms of drive current, transconductance, cut-off frequency. In addition, the linearity and distortion analysis has been carried out for both the proposed devices with respect to higher order transconductance (gm2 and gm3), VIP2, IMD3, and HD2. The Si0.5Ge0.5 source DL-DG-TFET has better performance characteristics and reliability in compare to Si-source DL-DG-TFET owing to low energy bandgap material and higher mobility. The switching ratio obtained for Si0.5Ge0.5 source DL-DG-TFET is order of 5×1014 that makes it a suitable contender for low power applications.
