In order to precisely model TFETs, it is essential to understand the several aspects related to the physics-based modeling of these devices. Using 2D TCAD simulation, we showed that in order to appropriately model the electrostatic potential in InAs-based TFETs, the electron quasi-Fermi potential (eQFP) should be taken to depend on biasing conditions, both VDS and VGS, contrary to the case of Si-based TFETs in which the eQFP is considered independent of VGS which is widely encoun- tered in the literature. The study is carried out for InAs double-gate homojunction tunnel FETs (DG- TFETs). In addition, we applied the main key factor of dependence of eQFP on a modified TFET model and it is revealed that the interpretation of eQFP correctly predicts the electrostatic potential and the drain-to-source band to band tunneling current. 2022 THE AUTHORS.
