Abstract

An increase in power consumption necessitates a low-power circuit technology to extend Moore’s law. Low-power transistors, such as tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs), negative-capacitance field-effect transistors (NC-FETs), and Dirac-source field-effect transistors (DS-FETs), have been realised to break the thermionic limit of the subthreshold swing (SS). However, a low-power rectifier, able to overcome the thermionic limit of an ideality factor (η) of 1 at room temperature, has not been proposed yet. In this study, we have realised a DS diode based on graphene/MoS2/graphite van der Waals heterostructures, which exhibits a steep-slope characteristic curve, by exploiting the linear density of states (DOSs) of graphene. For the developed DS diode, we obtained η
