Abstract :
This paper presents a comparative study of a one-bit-full-adder cell based on metallic complementary capacitively coupled single-electron transistors with its 22 nm CMOS counterpart. Performance and energy efficiency are investigated. The CMOS-like single-electron transistor based full adder is used in two operating mode, hysteresis and non-hysteresis. Parallel and serial single electron transistors designs are introduced. The single electron inverter consumes less than 90.4 pW while it dissipates 4.21 nW in CMOS technology.
