Uniform Methodology of Benchmarking Beyond-CMOS Devices
31 Oct 2012 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Dmitri Nikonov
Multiple logic devices are presently under study within the Nanoelectronic Research Initiative (NRI) to carry the development of integrated circuits beyond the CMOS roadmap. Structure and operational principles of these devices are described. Theories used for benchmarking these devices are …

Performance of Magnetic Quantum Cellular Automata and Limitations due to Thermal Noise
02 Jun 2011 | Publications | Contributor(s): Ajey Jacob, Dmitri Nikonov
Operation parameters of magnetic quantum cellular automata are evaluated for the purposes of
reliable logic operation. The dynamics if nanomagnets is simulated via Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations with stochastic magnetic field corresponding to thermal fluctuations. It is found that in the …

Taxonomy of spintronics (a zoo of devices)
02 Nov 2006 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Dmitri Nikonov, George Bourianoff
The presentation deals with classification of logic devices based on electron spin as a computational variable. Requirements for logic devices are reviewed. Specifically we focus on a) concatenability (output of one device can drive another) and b) the complete set of Boolean operators (NOT, AND, …
