SOI based nanowire single-electron transistors: design, simulation and process development

One of the great problems in current large-scale integrated circuits is increasing power dissipation in a small silicon chip. Single-electron transistor which operate by means of one-by-one electron transfer, is relatively small and consume very low power and suitable for achieving higher levels of...

Single-electron transistor which operate by means of one-by-one electron transfer, is relatively small and consume very low power and suitable for achieving higher levels of integration.
