Abstract :
Low-threshold-voltage, radiation-resistant complementary metal-nitride-oxide-semiconductor (CMNOS) arrays have been constructed utilizing a multilayer nitrid-oxide gate insulator. Both the n- and p-channel CMNOS devices havre threshold voltages that are typically 0.5 to 0.9 V. This low threshold permits operation of the arrays with a 5-volt power supply providing very low power dissipation and low insulator electric fields.
