When a CMOS circuit is in an idle state there is still some static power dissipation–a result of leakage current through nominally off transistors. Both nMOS and pMOS transistors used in CMOS logic ...

Field-effect transistors based on carbon nanotubes have been shown to be faster and less energy consuming than their silicon counterparts. However, ensuring these advantages are maintained for ...

Design of CMOS digital integrated circuits, concentrating on device, circuit, and architectural issues. Analysis and design techniques in custom integrated circuit design, standard cells, memory. Use ...

Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology is a vital part of modern electronics, used in designing and manufacturing integrated circuits (ICs) that power many digital devices. CMOS ...

As author R. Jacob “Jake” Baker points out in the preface to this comprehensive volume, CMOS technology has dominated the fabrication of ICs for 25 years, and is likely to dominate it for another 25 ...

The first CMOS chip was created by Fairchild Semiconductor, presented at ISSCC in 1963. The logic topologies used in today’s textbooks originated in this work. P-type devices are slower than N-type by ...

Diamond CMOS needs symmetrical doping control like we have for semiconductor silicon and diamond n-MOS is needed. The n-channel diamond MOSFETs are demonstrated. This work will enable the development ...

In the semiconductor domain, the operating frequency of devices and the number of transistors in a single module increase over time. In this article, we will look at widely known low power ...
