Abstract
A driving force in electronic device research has been increased functionality with reduced energy loss. One of the techniques proposed for meeting these goals has been the employment of tunnel diodes integrated with conventional transistors to form logic and memory circuits. Considerable progress has been made in the area of Si-based resonant interband tunnel diodes (RITD).
