Abstract

Single electron transistor (SET) is a key element of present device research which can offer high operating speed with low power consumption. Downscaling of minimum feature size of CMOS transistor has been the basis for advancement in ultra large integration for many years. But by no means it has turned to be a never ending process. The present work demonstrates a hypothetical approach to design a single electron device based commercially viable logic circuit to be embedded in next generation IC's.
