Abstract
In this work, the performance of ambipolar carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) is evaluated using Standford CNTFET model in a novel way. Carbon nanotube field effect transistor utilizing a semiconducting carbon nanotube (CNT) channel controlled by both polarity and regular gates. In this work, static logic gates and circuits based on ambipolar carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNTFETs) using transmission – gate method have been designed. The power and delay performance of ambipolar carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) has been investigated in basic logic gates and combinational logic circuits like half adder, full adder, half subtractor and full subtractor based on Standford Carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) model.
