Modeling tunnel currents in organic permeable-base transistors

摘要

Research in organic permeable base transistors (OPBTs) has led to a significant increase in their performance. However, despite this progress, understanding of the working mechanism of OPBTs is still limited. Although first numerical models of OPBTs are able to describe the switching mechanism of OPBTs correctly, they neglect currents injected at the base electrode, which leads to unrealistically low off-currents and high ON/OFF ratios.
