This paper proposes a robust to defects and short length device (RDSLD), a newly in-plane resonant tunneling diode (RTD), and its ac-modeling with the minimum length of 3 nm. The proposed structure has robust performance in the presence of defects. It also has a high degree of flexibility in tuning electronic specifications. By using bipolar doping and a special h-boron nitride barrier pattern, these unique features are obtained. The simulation results verify that the proposed structure has the potential for replacing conventional RTD diodes. Such that the peak-to-valley ratio (PVR) and the maximum current of 4500, 450 nA for perfect bowtie and 3.45, 1256 nA for rhombic barrier shape structure are obtained, respectively. Also, negative differential resistance (NDR) is observed in all of the structures with vacancy and impurity defects. The effect of the geometrical parameters on the charge transmission of the device is another issue that is addressed in this paper. Furthermore, the analytical and numerical capacitance model parameters are presented.
