Abstract Junctionless complementary field effect transistor (JL-CFET) is an emerging device that needs a small layout area and low fabrication cost. However, in order for the JL-CFET to be adopted for low power applications, two main constraints need to be overcome: (1) a high work function of metal gate and (2) a low drain current. In this work, an optimal device design is proposed to overcome those problems, by analyzing various performance metrics, such as on-state drive current, subthreshold swing, drain induced barrier lowering, propagation delay time, and ring oscillator’s oscillation frequency, which are extracted from various structures of JL-CFET. In addition, the negative capacitance effect in JL-CFET is examined to address the limit from device structures.

An improved ultrahigh upper gate 4H-SiC metal semiconductor field effect transistor (IUU-MESFET) is proposed in this paper. The structure is obtained by modifying the ultrahigh upper gate height h of the ultrahigh upper gate 4H-SiC metal semiconductor field effect transistor (UU-MESFET) structure, and the h is 0.1 μm and 0.2 μm for the IUU-MESFET and UU-MESFET, respectively. Compared with the UU-MESFET, the IUU-MESFET structure has a greater threshold voltage and trans-conductance, and smaller breakdown voltage and saturation drain current, and when the ultrahigh upper gate height h is 0.1 μm, the relationship between these parameters is balanced, so as to solve the contradictory relationship that these parameters cannot be improved simultaneously. Therefore, the power added efficiency (PAE) of the IUU-MESFET structure is increased from 60.16% to 70.99% compared with the UU-MESFET, and advanced by 18%.


D flip-flop is viewed as the most basic memory cell in by far most of computerized circuits, which brings it broad usage, particularly under current conditions where high-thickness pipeline innovation is as often as possible utilized in advanced coordinated circuits and flip-flop modules are key segments. As a constant research center, various sorts of zero flip-flops have been concocted and explored, and the ongoing exploration pattern has gone to rapid low-control execution, which can be come down to low power-defer item. To actualize superior VLSI, picking the most proper D flip-flop has clearly become an incredibly huge part in the structure stream. The quick headway in semiconductor innovation made it practicable to coordinate entire electronic framework on a solitary chip. CMOS innovation is the most doable semiconductor innovation yet it neglects to proceed according to desires past and at 32nm innovation hub because of the short channel impacts. GNRFET is Graphene Nano Ribbon Field Effect Transistor, it is seen that GNRFET is a promising substitute for low force application for its better grasp over the channel. In this paper, an audit on Dynamic Flip Flop and GNRFET is introduced. The power is improved in the proposed circuit for the D flip flop TSPC.
