The model is validated by comparison with NEGF simulations based on a k · p Hamiltonian. Application of the new model to the electron-hole bilayer TFET is provided showing that the inclusion of the asymmetry of the real and imaginary branches of the hole dispersion relation is critical in determining the device characteristics. © 2015 IEEE.Modeling the imaginary branch in III-V tunneling devices: Effective mass vs k.ptext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
