Article Abstract
In this paper, a novel ferroelectric-based electrostatic doping (Fe-ED) nanosheet tunneling field-effect transistor (TFET) is proposed and analyzed using technology computer-aided design (TCAD) Sentaurus simulation software. By inserting a ferroelectric film into the polarity gate, the electrons and holes are induced in an intrinsic silicon film to create the p-source and the n-drain regions, respectively. Device performance is largely independent of the chemical doping profile, potentially freeing it from issues related to abrupt junctions, dopant variability, and solid solubility. An improved ON-state current and I/I ratio have been demonstrated in a 3D-calibrated simulation, and the Fe-ED NSTFET's on-state current has increased significantly. According to our study, Fe-ED can be used in versatile reconfigurable nanoscale transistors as well as highly integrated circuits as an effective doping strategy.

Heterojunctions are sustainable solutions for the photocatalytic CO reduction reaction (CORR) by regulating charge separation behavior at the interface. However, their efficiency and product selectivity are severely hindered by the inflexible and weak built-in electric field and the electronic structure of the two phases. Herein, ferroelectric-based heterojunctions between polarized bismuth ferrite (BFO(P)) and CdS are constructed to enhance the interfacial interactions and catalytic activity.

In this paper, based on ferroelectric based electrostatic doping (Fe-ED) and optical readout due to plasma dispersion effect, we propose an electrically programmable, multi-level non-volatile photonics memory cell, which can be fabricated by standard complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) compatible processes. HfZrO (HZO) film is chosen as the ferroelectric ED layer and combines with polysilicon layers for an enhanced amplitude modulation between the carrier accumulation and the confined optical field.

The low on-current and direct source-to-drain tunneling (DSDT) issues are the main drawbacks in the ultrascaled tunneling field-effect transistors based on carbon nanotube and ribbons. In this article, the performance of nanoscale junctionless carbon nanotube tunneling field-effect transistors (JL CNTTFETs) is greatly improved by using the synergy of electrostatic and chemical doping engineering. The computational investigation is conducted via a quantum simulation approach, which solves self-consistently the Poisson equation and the non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism in the ballistic limit.

In ferroelectric thin films, the polarization state and the domain configuration define the macroscopic ferroelectric properties such as the switching dynamics. Engineering of the ferroelectric domain configuration during synthesis is in permanent evolution and can be achieved by a range of approaches, extending from epitaxial strain tuning over electrostatic environment control to the influence of interface atomic termination. Exotic polar states are now designed in the technologically relevant ultrathin regime.
