Abstract
The potential of electrical tunability in a 3-gated (3G) Reconfigurable Field Effect Transistor (RFET) for analog/RF applications is investigated through four distinct configurations (R${}_{\text {2-IG-LVT}}$ , R${}_{\text {1-IG-Ambi}}$ , R${}_{\text {3-IG-LVT}}$ , and R${}_{\text {2-IG-HVT}}$ ). The electrical connections through two program gates (PG) and one control gate (CG) in 3G-RFET supports the implementation of configurations suitable for low-VTH (R${}_{\text {2-IG-LVT}}$ and R${}_{\text {3-IG-LVT}}$ ) and high-VTH (R${}_{\text {2-IG-HVT}}$ ), phase follower/reversal (R${}_{\text {2-IG-LVT}}$ ), frequency doubler (R${}_{\text {1-IG-Ambi}}$ ), high gain (R${}_{\text {3-IG-LVT}}$ ), lower parasitic capacitance (R${}_{\text {2-IG-LVT}}$ and R${}_{\text {3-IG-LVT}}$ ), and higher linearity (R${}_{\text {3-IG-LVT}}$ ) applications. Results showcase electrical tunability as an opportunity to realize many analog/RF features–in–one nanoscale 3G-RFET.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society (J-EDS) is an open-access, fully electronic scientific journal publishing papers ranging from fundamental to applied research that are scientifically rigorous and relevant to electron devices. The J-EDS publishes original and significant contributions relating to the theory, modelling, design, performance, and reliability of electron and ion integrated circuit devices and interconnects, involving insulators, metals, organic materials, micro-plasmas, semiconductors, quantum-effect structures, vacuum devices, and emerging materials with applications in bioelectronics, biomedical electronics, computation, communications, displays, microelectromechanics, imaging, micro-actuators, nanodevices, optoelectronics, photovoltaics, power IC''s, and micro-sensors. Tutorial and review papers on these subjects are, also, published. And, occasionally special issues with a collection of papers on particular areas in more depth and breadth are, also, published. J-EDS publishes all papers that are judged to be technically valid and original.
