Ambipolar conduction, characterized by a superposition of electron and hole
currents, has been observed in many next-generation devices including carbon
nanotube, graphene, silicon nanowire, and organic transistors. This
paper describes exciting new design opportunities in both analog and
digital domains, all of which are inspired by the ability to control
ambipolarity during circuit operation. We illustrate this with (i) a
single-transistor polarity controllable amplifier, which can greatly simplify
communication circuits and (ii) polarity controllable ambipolar logic gates,
which are highly expressive yet compact compared to conventional CMOS. |
