Opis

Tunnel FET (TFET) devices have been explored mostly in digital circuits, showing promising results for ultra-low power and energy efficient circuit applications. In this book, the TFET is explored as an alternative technology for ultra-low power and voltage conversion and management circuits, suitable for weak energy harvesting (EH) sources.
