The growing variability in nanoelectronic devices due to uncertainties from the manufacturing process and environmental conditions (power supply, temperature, aging) requires increasing design guardbands, forcing circuits to work with conservative clock frequencies. Various schemes for clock generation based on ring oscillators have been proposed with the goal to mitigate the power and performa...

Carbon nanotubes display a consummate blend of materials properties that affect applications ranging from nanoelectronic circuits and biosensors to field emitters and membranes. These applications use the non-covalent interactions between the nanotubes and chemical functionalities, often involving a few molecules at a time. Despite their wide use, we still lack a fundamental understanding and m...

Atomically-thin, inherently 2D semiconductors offer thickness scaling of nanoelectronic devices and excellent response to light for low-power versatile applications. Using small exfoliated flakes, advanced devices and integrated circuits have already been realized, showing great potential to impact nanoelectronics. Here, high-quality single-crystal MoSe2 is grown by molecular beam epitaxy on Al...

The vision for graphene and other two-dimensional electronics is the direct production of nanoelectronic circuits and barrier materials from a single precursor sheet. DNA origami and single-stranded tiles are powerful methods to encode complex shapes within a DNA sequence, but their translation to patterning other nanomaterials has been limited. Here we develop a metallized DNA nanolithography ...

With the decreasing feature size of today’s nanoelectronic circuits, the susceptibility to transient failures increases. New robust and self-adaptive designs are developed, which can handle transient error to some extent, but at the same time make testing for permanent faults more difficult. This paper reviews the “signature rollback“ scheme as a strategy to minimize both test time and yield lo...

Traditionally, a fault handling strategy is considered effective if it covers large classes of faults, e.g., all single faults. This conventional wisdom has recently been challenged by identifying subsets of faults which are acceptable at system level. One example is a fault in an imaging microchip which does not result in a deterioration of the calculated image to the extent that a human viewe...

New issues come from the advent nanometric devices: defect and fault tolerance -at the physical, circuit and most importantly at the system levelis an enabling technology for building reliable nanoelectronic systems. Semiconductor manufacturers are responding to these challenges by introducing a variety of technical innovations, including new manufacture testing methodologies, virtual testing, ...

Computing technologies are currently based on the binary logic/number system, which is dependent simple and off switching mechanism of prevailing transistors. With exponential increase data processing storage needs, there a strong push to move higher radix system that can eradicate or lessen many limitations system. Anticipated saturation Moore’s law necessity information density speed in futur...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials such as monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS(2)) are extremely interesting for integration in nanoelectronic devices where they represent the ultimate limit of miniaturization in the vertical direction. Thanks to the presence of a band gap and subnanometer thickness, monolayer MoS(2) can be used for the fabrication of transistors exhibiting extremely high on/off ra...
