Abstract

A vertical field-effect resonant tunneling transistor is demonstrated consisting of a triple-barrier, double-well resonant tunneling diode (3bRTD) that can be depleted by the action of side gates. The 3bRTD features a double peak current-voltage characteristic in which the second valley current is less than the first valley current. Combination of the resonant tunneling transistor and a constant current load is shown to yield both binary and ternary logic and memory functions.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
