Abstract Extremely narrow and bulk-like p-type InAs–Si nanowire TFETs are studied using (i) a full-band and atomistic quantum transport simulator based on the sp 3 d 5 s ∗ tight-binding model and (ii) a drift–diffusion TCAD tool. As (iii) option, a two-band model and the WKB approximation have been adapted to work in heterostructures through a careful choice of the imaginary dispersion. It is found that for ultra-scaled InAs–Si nanowire TFETs, the WKB approximation and the quantum transport results agree very well, suggesting that the former could be applied to larger hetero-TFET structures and considerably reduce the simulation time while keeping a high accuracy. |
