This paper shows that the drain bias VD has a strong effect on GIDL current as compared with the gate bias VG at the same drain-gate voltage VDG. It is found that the difference between ID in the off-state ID - VG characteristics and the corresponding one in the off-state ID - VD characteristics, which is defined as IDIFF, versus VDG shows a peak. The difference between the influences of VD and VG on GIDL current is shown quantitatively by IDIFF, especially in 90nm scale. The difference is due to different hole tunnellings, Furthermore, the maximum IDIFF（IDIFF,MAX） varies linearly with VDG in logarithmic coordiuates and also VDG at IDIFF,MAX with VF which is the characteristic voltage of IDIFF, The relations are studied and some related expressions are given.展开更多

Quantum-dot cellular automate (QCA), single electron tunneling (SET), tunneling phase logic (TPL), spintronic devices, etc., are some of the nanotechnologies that are being considered as possible replacements for CMOS. In these nanotechnologies, the basic logic units used to implement circuits are majority and/or minority gates. Several majority/minority logic circuit synthesis methods have been proposed. In this paper, we give a comparative study of the existing majority/minority logic circuit synthesis methods that are capable of synthesizing multi-input multi-output Boolean functions. Each of these methods is discussed in detail. The optimization priorities given to different factors such as gates, levels, inverters, etc., vary with technologies. Based on these optimization factors, the results obtained from different synthesis methods are compared. The paper also analyzes the optimization capabilities of different methods and discusses directions for future research in the synthesis of majority/minority logic networks.展开更多
