Controllable potential barrier for multiple negative-differential-transconductance and its application to multi-valued logic computing

Abstract Various studies on multi-valued-logic (MVL) computing, which utilizes more than two logic states, have recently been resumed owing to the demand for greater power saving in the current logic technologies. In particular, unlike old-fashioned researches, extensive efforts have been focused on...
