摘要
Developing low-power FETs holds significant importance in advancing logic circuits,especially as the feature size of MOSFETs approaches sub-10 nanometers.However,this has been restricted by the thermionic limitation of SS,which is limited to 60 mV per decade at room temperature.Herein,we proposed a strategy that utilizes 2D semiconductors with an isolated-band feature as channels to realize subthermionic SS in MOSFETs.Through high-throughput calculations,we established a guiding principle that combines the atomic structure and orbital interaction to identify their sub-thermionic transport potential.This guides us to screen 192 candidates from the 2D material database comprising 1608 systems.Additionally,the physical relationship between the sub-thermionic transport performances and electronic structures is further revealed,which enables us to predict 15 systems with promising device performances for low-power applications with supply voltage below 0.5 V.This work opens a new way for the low-power electronics based on 2D materials and would inspire extensive interests in the experimental exploration of intrinsic steep-slope MOSFETs.
