Patent ID: 10840906

Abstract:
The presently disclosed invention astutely turns the potentially detrimental crosstalk effect in nanocircuitry into an advantage by engineering interference among single lines. In one embodiment, a nanocircuit logic gate within an array of nanocircuitry comprises first and second aggressor metal conductive lines; a victim line; and an inverter coupled to the victim line; wherein the first and second aggressor conductive lines are positioned to induce a signal on the victim line. In another embodiment, a nanocircuit logic gate within an array of nanocircuitry comprises first and second aggressor metal conductive lines; a control aggressor metal conductive line; a victim line; and a first inverter coupled to the victim line; wherein the first and second aggressor conductive lines and the control aggressor conductive line are positioned to induce a signal on the victim line. Further embodiments include complex computational and logic structures based on these efficient logic circuits.
