Erratum: Analytic Model for the Surface Potential and Drain Current in Negative Capacitance Field-Effect Transistors

TLDR
In this paper, a comprehensive physics-based surface potential and drain current model for the negative capacitance (NC) field effect transistor (FET) is presented, which is aimed to evaluate the potentiality of such transistors for low power switching applications.
Abstract
In 2008, Salahuddin and Datta proposed that a ferroelectric material operating in the negative capacitance (NC) region could act as a step-up converter of the surface potential in a metal-oxide-semiconductor structure, opening a new route for the realization of transistors with steeper subthreshold characteristics (S <; 60mV/dec). In this paper, a comprehensive physics-based surface potential and a drain current model for the NC field-effect transistor are reported. The model is aimed to evaluate the potentiality of such transistors for low-power switching applications. This paper also sheds light on how operation in the NC region can be experimentally detected.
