Abstract
Tunnel field effect devices and methods of fabricating tunnel field effect devices are described. In one embodiment, the semiconductor device includes a first drain region of a first conductivity type disposed in a first region of a substrate, a first source region of a second conductivity type disposed in the substrate, the second conductivity type being opposite the first conductivity type, a first channel region electrically coupled between the first source region and the first drain region, the first source region underlying a least a portion of the first channel region, and a first gate stack overlying the first channel region.
