Patent ID: 7855403

Claim:
An intermediate SRAM structure comprising: an organized and structured arrangement of SRAM cells, each SRAM cell having two semiconductor-type field effect transistors (FETs), each FET having a semiconductor drain region and a semiconductor source region of a first type of semiconductor material, and each FET having a semiconductor channel region positioned between respective drain and source regions, said channel region made of a second type of semiconductor material, each FET further having a gate node in proximity to a respective channel region so as to be able to modulate the conductivity of the channel by electrically stimulating the gate, wherein the two semiconductor-type FETs are cross-coupled so that gate of one FET connects to the drain or source of the other; and two nanotube FETs (NTFETs), each having a channel region made of non-woven nanotube fabric, connected to a respective source and drain region of a corresponding NTFET, a first NTFET connected to the drain or source of the first semiconductor-type FET and the second NTFET connected to the drain or source of the second semiconductor-type FET; burn-off circuitry to electrically stimulate the channel regions of the NTFETs to fail nanotubes of metallic type while leaving at least one nanotube of semiconductor type.
