    (Color online) (a) Schematic model of DG ML GaSb MOSFET with 10 nm gate length. (b, c) Transfer characteristic of ML GaSb and h-GaSb and BL GaSb and h-GaSb.
    Fig. 2. (Color online) (a) Schematic model of DG ML GaSb MOSFET with 10 nm gate length. (b, c) Transfer characteristic of ML GaSb and h-GaSb and BL GaSb and h-GaSb.
    (Color online) (a) On-current versus the effective mass m*, (b) subthreshold swing versus transconductance, and (c) power-delay products versus delay time. Labels with and without cross-shaped subscripts represent the values calculated according to IRDS and ITRS standards, respectively. The data of other transistors with a similar gate length are also included for comparison: GaSb p-nanowire[29], BP (transfer along zigzag direction)[30], WSe2[31], MoS2 MOSFETs[9], and Si FinFET[32].

    (Color online) Position resolved local density of state and spectral current in the channel region of (a–c) ML GaSb, (d–f) ML h-GaSb and (g–i) BL h-GaSb at different states. μs and μd are the electrochemical potential of the source and drain, respectively. ΦB is the effective barrier height.
