Development of Single-Electron Transistor and Organic FET for Memory and Gas Sensor Applications

Single-Electron transistor and Organic FET are very attractive devices on beyond CMOS technology. They offer the special advantages like a low power electronics for smart sensors and high flexibility for organic flush memory. In this work, we explain the operating principle of two structures with different types (Metallic/ Semiconductor SET and P-type/N-type OFET) by studying the electrical characteristics via a physically based device simulator. We propose a new models and applications for data storage and gas sensor using new nanomaterials (C₆₀). We study an experimental-neuromorphic circuit emulating synapse and neuron functions.
