Abstract

Atomistic transport simulation based on the nonequilibrium Green's function and empirical tight-binding methods has been performed for one-dimensional strained Si n–i–n devices. Simulation results show that the tensile strain enhances the ballistic current and reduces the Zener tunneling current, while the compressive strain gives opposite results.
