In 1952, Hodgkin-Huxley have developed an electronic circuit describing the biophysical nature of a neuron. Acetylcholine field effect transistor (AchFET) has been developed in this paper for detection of Acetylcholine (neurotransmitter) and then the AchFET is used in an electronic circuit to reproduce neuronal signals. AchFET is an enzyme field effect transistor (ENFET) fabricated by immobiliz...

In this study, vertical tunnel FET-based ternary CMOS (T-CMOS) is introduced and its electrical characteristics are investigated using TCAD device mixed-mode simulations with experimentally calibrated tunneling parameters. This new T-CMOS utilizes two different types of currents to form three output voltage states: (1) source-to-drain current; (2) conventional source-to-channel current. To a ha...
