Abstract
Here we explore the performance limit of monolayer germanane (GeH) field-effect transistors (FETs). We first plotted an electronic band structure of GeH using density functional theory and then tight-binding parameters were extracted. Device characteristics of GeH FETs are investigated using rigorous self-consistent atomistic quantum transport simulations within tight-binding approximations. Our simulation results indicate that GeH FETs can exhibit exceptional on-state device characteristics, such as high Ion (>2 mA/μm) and large gm (~7 mS/μm) with V <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">DD</sub> = 0.5 V due to the very light effective mass of GeH (0.07m <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">0</sub> ), while maintaining excellent switching characteristics (SS~64 mV/dec). We have also performed a scaling study by varying the channel length, and it turned out that GeH FET can be scaled down to ~14-nm channel without facing significant short channel effects but it may suffer from large leakage current at the channel length shorter than 10 nm. Finally, we have benchmarked GeH FET against MoS <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> counterpart, exhibiting better suitability of GeH device for high-performance applications compared with MoS <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sub> transistors.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
