Abstract :
A simple Spice equivalent circuit model for simulating current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and logic operation waveforms of an eight-peak resonant tunneling diode is presented. The simulated results agreed well with experimental data measured from an eight-peak resonant tunneling diode device fabricated by Seabaugh´s experiment. This is shown through PSpice simulation
