Abstract

A tunnel field-effect transistor and method fabricating the same are provided. The tunnel field-effect transistor includes a drain region, a source region with opposite conductive type to the drain region, a channel region disposed between the drain region and the source region, a metal gate layer disposed around the channel region, and a high-k dielectric layer disposed between the metal gate layer and the channel region.
