Abstract

A tunneling field effect transistor and a method for fabricating the same are provided. The tunneling field effect transistor comprises: a semiconductor substrate; a channel region formed in the semiconductor substrate, with one or more isolation structures formed in the channel region; a first buried layer and a second buried layer formed in the semiconductor substrate and located at both sides of the channel region respectively, the first buried layer being first type non-heavily-doped, and the second buried layer being second type non-heavily-doped; a source region and a drain region formed in the semiconductor substrate and located on the first buried layer and the second buried layer respectively; and a gate dielectric layer formed on the one or more isolation structures, and a gate formed on the gate dielectric layer.
