To address the lack of accurate analytical models for Etched Drain based GAA TFET, utilizing a Verilog-A device model designed utilizing lookup table, we were able to achieve both precision and efficiency in compact modeling for emerging devices. Verification against conventional BSIM modeling confirms the validity of this approach and is shown in the figure above, which outlines the simulation methodology used in this study. To implement this model, we first optimized various parameters through device simulation. We then generated lookup tables for Ids, Cgs, and Cgd in terms of Vgs and Vds using the obtained I–V and C–V graphs. By integrating these lookup tables into Verilog-A-based models, they can be employed in conjunction with SPICE simulation. Lastly, the Cadence Virtuoso tool was utilized to conduct simulations and measurements of diverse performance metrics for the SRAM circuit.
