In this paper, we demonstrate p-channel tunnel FETs based on silicon nanowires grown with an in situ p-i-n doping profile. The tunnel FETs were fabricated with three different gate dielectrics, SiO2, Al2O3, and HfO2, and show a performance enhancement when using high-k dielectric materials. The best performance is achieved for the devices using HfO2 as the gate dielectric, which reach an I-on of 0.1 mu A/mu m (V-DS = -0.5 V, V-GS = -2 V), combined with an average inverse subthreshold slope (SS) of similar to 120 mV/dec and an I-on/I-off ratio of around 10(6). For the tunnel FETs with Al2O3 as the gate dielectric, different annealing steps were evaluated, and an activation anneal at only 700 degrees C was found to yield the best results. Furthermore, we also investigated the temperature behavior of the tunnel FETs. Ideal tunnel FET behavior was observed for devices having ohmic Ni/Au contacts, and we demonstrate the invariance of both the SS and ON-current with temperature, as expected for true tunnel FETs.
