Low Power Single Electron Or/Nor Gate Operating at 10GHz

The design and simulation of a single-electron OR/NOR gate is being presented using a Monte Carlo based tool. Both the OR/NOR behavior and the stability were verified while the free energy behavior of the circuit was also examined. The results confirmed that the circuit behaved as an OR/NOR gate, depicting improved characteristics than previously published single electron OR circuits, achieving a really fast operational speed at low power. Moreover, the noise through the circuit was nearly diminished, while a stable behavior of the circuit was verified without any noise present at the output points.
