METAL-INSULATOR PHASE TRANSITION FLIP-FLOP |
摘要 |
A metal-insulator phase transition (MIT) flip-flop employs a selected one of a pair of bi-stable operating states to represent a logic state of the MIT flip-flop. The MIT flip-flop includes an MIT device having a current-controlled negative differential resistance (CC-NDR) to provide the pair of bi-stable operating states. A bi-stable operating state of the pair is capable of being selected by a programing voltage. Once the bi-stable operating state is selected, the bi-stable operating state is capable of being maintained by a bias voltage applied to the MIT device. |

1. A metal-insulator phase transition (MIT) flip-flop comprising:
a metal-insulator phase transition (MIT) device having current-controlled negative differential resistance (CC-NDR) to provide a pair of bi-stable operating states, the bi-stable operating states being separated from one another on a current-voltage (I-V) characteristic of the MIT device by a CC-NDR region of the I-V characteristic, wherein a bi-stable operating state of the pair is capable of being selected by a programing voltage, and wherein once the bi-stable operating state is selected, the bi-stable operating state is capable of being maintained by a bias voltage applied to the MIT device, the selected bi-stable operating state representing a logic state of the MIT flip-flop. |
