چکیده
Multi Tunnel Junctions (MTJs) have attracted much attention recently in the fields of Single-Electron Devices (SED) in particular Single-Electron Memory (SEM). In this paper, we have design and study a nano-device structure using a two dimensional array MTJs for Volatile and Non-Volatile-SEM, in order to analyze the impact of physical parameters on the performances. We investigate the single-electron circuit characteristics in our devices qualitatively, using single-electron Monte Carlo simulator SIMON.

Optimization of Non-volatile Memory Cell and Energy Consumption in Robot Systems by Synthesized Silicon Nanoparticles via Electrical Discharge
In this paper, we propose to optimize manufacturing methods of memory cells by produced silicon nanoparticles via electrical spark discharge of silicon electrodes in water to reduce the energy consumption for low power applications. The pulsed spark discharge with the peak current of 60 A and a duration of a single discharge pulse of 60 µs was used in our experiment. The structure, morphology, ...
