The metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), a core element of complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology, represents one of the most momentous inventions since the industrial revolution. Driven by the requirements for higher speed, energy efficiency and integration density of integrated-circuit products, in the past six decades the physical gate length of MOSFETs has been scaled to sub-20 nanometres. However, the downscaling of tra...
