Lets Move Polymorphism Downwards: On the Multifunctional Logic Based on Ambipolar Behaviour of Semiconductor Devices
ambipolarity, multifunctional logic, polymorphic electronics
One of main advantages of polymorphic (multifunctional) electronics is efficiency in terms of size. To fulfil size-oriented constraints of a circuit, which exhibits more than one function with the same (unchanged) structure, components of the circuit have to be multi-functional and these components must be defined at the lowest possible level. Lower level means more size-efficient solution. This paper shows how components for polymorphic circuits should be implemented more efficiently, if multi-functionality at the transistor level (based on ambipolarity, often observed in so called post-silicon devices) is employed instead of at the gate level of abstraction, as it was used yet.
