This work presents a detailed TCAD investigation of the double-source vertical junction tunneling field-effect transistor (DSV-TFET) by ferroelectric gate oxide material (FE-DSV-TFET). We show that the ferroelectric oxide (Si: HfO2) improves the efficiency of the FE-DSV-TFET structure. The proposed device reduces the subthreshold swing from 13.2 to 6.2 mV/dec. Also, OFF-current decreases ~ 2.5 orders, and ON-current increases from 100 to 200 µA/µm in the FE-DSV-TFET. Besides, we investigate the hysteresis impact of coercive field (EC) and remnant polarization (Pr) compared to DSV-TFET.
