Analysis of Surface Current by Quantum Tunneling Effect of Thin Film Transistors with Topological Insulators

Dirac insulator and Weyl conductors have different semiconductor structures. A Dirac insulator is a SiOC insulated thin film, and a Weyl conductor consists of transistors with different semiconductor structures combining channels with SiOC insulated films. The transfer characteristics of transistors were investigated in this study. The difference between Dirac insulators and Weyl conductors is the same as the difference between transistors without channels and transistors with channels. Transistors without channels exhibit bidirectional transmission characteristics due to the spin currents of the Dirac insulators. By contrast, transistors with channels display unidirectional transmission characteristics consistent with the movement of the charges in the channels. This unidirectional transmission characteristic results in an existence of the threshold voltage and leakage current.
