Abstract :
A new logic family based on ultra-thin film (10nm) nanograins (5 to 20nm) polysilicon wires (polySiNW) is proposed, validated and studied. This logic family can be operated from 4K up to 400K and hybridized with conventional CMOS. Ultra low power dissipation in the order of hundreds of pWs has been observed, which is outperforming CMOS technology, in terms of power consumption, by orders of magnitude
