  • Abstract
    A state holding circuit, similar to the Muller C-element used as a latch, a register or a counter, has been successfully fabricated using GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Using the negative resistance in a resonant tunnel diode, the circuit has a simpler configuration than the C-element and a potential for use in high speed circuits
