Abstract
The present invention relates generally to integrated circuits and more particularly, to a structure and method of forming a hybrid circuit including a tunnel field-effect transistor (TFET) and a conventional field effect transistor (FET). Embodiments of the present invention include a hybrid amplifier which features a TFET common-source feeding a common-gate conventional FET (e.g. a MOSFET). A TFET gate may be electrically isolated from an output from a conventional FET. Thus, a high impedance input may be received by a TFET with a high-isolation output (i.e. low capacitance) at a conventional FET. A hybrid circuit amplifier including a TFET and a conventional FET may have a very high input impedance and a low miller capacitance.
