Nano-FET Devices: Miniaturization, Simulation, and Applications (Part 1)

This textbook provides an overview of next-generation Field-Effect Transistor (FET) technologies at the intersection of nanoelectronics, device miniaturization, and advanced applications. With a special emphasis on the evolution of semiconductor engineering, the book examines the shift from conventional CMOS to emerging FET architectures aimed at extending Moore ' s Law. Across 18 chapters, the book explores Tunnel FETs (TFETs), carbon-based FETs, and 2D-material transistors, with discussions on performance, scalability, and reliability. It features detailed analyses of advanced device structures such as HJ-DGV-TFETs, dual-pocket step-channel TFETs, and AlGaN/GaN HEMTs, as well as their roles in memory, photonics, and biomedical systems. The use of nanomaterials in biosensor integration and digital circuit design is also a key theme. Key features: -Traces technological transitions from CMOS to novel FETs -Examines nanoengineered device architectures and materials -Investigates applications in optoelectronics, memory, and biosensing -Analyzes simulation approaches for performance optimization -Highlights interdisciplinary innovations across electronics and healthcare.
