| | A Defect Model for Metallic Carbon Nanotubes in Cell-based Logic Circuits | | Authors: | H. Hashempour and F. Lombardi | | Affilation: | Northeastern University, US | | Pages: | 47 - 50 | | Keywords: | CNTFET, metallic CNT, source-drain short FET, defect modeling | | Abstract: | Carbon Nanotube based Field Effect Transistors (CNTFET) are promising nano scaled devices for implementing high performance, highly integrated, and low power circuits. The main component of a CNTFET is a single-wall
carbon nanotube (SWCNT); its conductance is determined by the so-called chirality of the tube and is extremely hard to control during manufacturing. Conducting nanotubes can lead to defective CNTFETs similar to source-drain short faults in Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect
Transistors (MOSFET). This paper presents a model and a corresponding
detection technique for nano scaled defects arising from the presence of metallic carbon nanotubes. Using an optimal layout of CNTFET based circuits, such defects are modeled by traditional stuck-at faults (SSF) and detected by SSF test sets. | | ISBN: | 0-9767985-8-1 |
