Abstract
This paper investigates the simulation and performance of Tunnel field effect transistor (TFET) with a nanocavity in it, which can be used for bio sensing application. The entire simulation is done using the tool Silvaco Atlas TCAD. This paper mainly aims in comparing the different parameters for few biomolecules which has different dielectric constant values, namely Streptavidin, Biotin, APTES, Cellulose and DNA. The device structure here consists of a nanocavity near the source end, which is used to place these biomolecules and hence observe the variation of the Drain current v/s Gate voltage characteristic graph, these biomolecules that are having unique dielectric constants are placed within this cavity and these graphs are observed. The energy band diagram of this device is obtained; on top of this various other parameters namely Surface Potential, Electric field are observed for the above-mentioned Biomolecules. The Length of the cavity of the biosensor is also varied to observe the difference, in addition to this Ion (ON current) variation is plotted for the change in the dielectric constant of the biomolecule.
