The Quantum Interference Effect Transistor: Principles and Perspectives
نویسندگان
چکیده
We give a detailed discussion of the Quantum Interference Effect Transistor (QuIET), a proposed device which exploits interference between electron paths through aromatic molecules to modulate current flow. In the off state, perfect destructive interference stemming from the molecular symmetry blocks current, while in the on state, current is allowed to flow by locally introducing either decoherence or elastic scattering. Details of a model calculation demonstrating the efficacy of the QuIET are presented, and various fabrication scenarios are proposed, including the possibility of using conducting polymers to connect the QuIET with multiple leads.

متن کاملPerformance evaluation of Carbon nanotube junctionless tunneling field effect transistor (CNT-JLTFET) under torsional strain: A quantum simulation study
In this paper, the performance of a CNT-JLTFET under different values of torsional strains of 0, 3, and 5 degrees has been investigated. Simulation has been carried out using non-equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) formalism in the mode-space approach and in the ballistic limit. The simulation results indicate that, under torsional strain, an increase occurs in the energy band-gap, and thus the...
