Abstract :
We propose a novel multiple negative differential resistance (NDR) device with the positive inclined tri-state voltage transfer characteristics (VTC) between drain and gate of 32nm n-type MOSFET based on gate-induced drain leakage (GIDL) enhanced off-state CMOS ternary inverter. The ultrahigh 1st and 2nd peak-to-valley current ratio (PVCR) over 104 can be designed with high slope of inclined ternary VTC by increasing the GIDL effects.
