Abstract Complementary metal‐oxide‐semiconductor (CMOS) field‐effect transistors (FETs) are the key component of a chip. Bulk indium arsenide (InAs) owns nearly 30 times higher electron mobility µ e than silicon but suffers from much lower hole h ( / = 80), thus unsuited to CMOS application with single material. Through accurate ab initio quantum‐transport simulations, performance gap between NMOS and PMOS is significantly narrowed predicted even vanished in sub‐2‐nm‐diameter gate‐all‐around...
