Abstract :
We have proposed gate architectures to perform NOR logic operations using the single electron transistors. The designs have been verified by using the SET-SPICE model and the nanostructure modeling software called SIMON. First, a two-input NOR gate was designed and verified and then the design was extended to implement a NOR gate with three inputs.
