摘要

This work presents a comprehensive investigation of GaN-based Junctionless Drain Extended Longitudinal FinFET (DELFinFET) using Sentaurus TCAD simulations, targeting thermally robust and energy efficient semiconductor devices as a means to reduce the environmental footprint of electronic devices. Introducing a longitudinal fin achieves superior lateral electric field modulation, improved carrier transport, and enhanced electric control. This helps in improving the key analog performance metrics such as sub-threshold slope, leakage current ( \(I_{off}\) I off ), transconductance ( \(g_m\) g m ), and the switching ratio ( \(I_{on}\) I on / \(I_{off}\) I off ). The results obtained highlight the potential of DELFinFET for low-power applications. A comparative evaluation is performed between the designed device and other device configurations to verify the effectiveness of the design.
