In this study, we propose a SPICE model of p ‐channel silicon tunneling field‐effect transistors (TFETs) for logic applications. To verify our model, electrical characteristics of fabricated p ‐TFETs are calibrated by utilizing TCAD and SPICE simulations. We simulate various logic gates, such as complementary TFET ( c ‐TFET) inverters, c ‐TFET NAND gates, and c ‐TFET NOR gates using our TFET model. Our simulation shows that a c ‐TFET inverter can be operated at V DD as low as 0.3 V and that c ‐TFET logic gates based on our model can operate ~1000 times higher frequency than conventional TFET logic gates.
