The cumulative increase of resistivity in copper due to scaling and indispensable requirements of high current densities and unprecedented switching speed are the impelling forces behind the continuous investigation towards the new wiring solution for nanometer circuits and systems. Mixed carbon nanotube bundle (MCB) interconnects are the most optimistic solution that can address the challenges faced by the conventional materials and thereby enhances the lifetime of electrical interconnects. The reliability of the MCB structures are investigated by calculating the propagation delay and power dissipation. The delays and peak crosstalk noise are examined from the transient analysis for all the bundle structures considered in the present study. Further to improve the data rates and performance, CNTFET based ternary logic system is encompassed for MCB interconnects. Active shielding technique is incorporated effectively for minimizing the crosstalk effects. Finally, modelling of the mixed CNT bundle is done under the influence of temperature and the temperature sensitive crosstalk noise effects are investigated for CNTFET based active shielded MCB structures. Encouragingly, it is observed that, the crosstalk effects are lessened to a greater extent for the MCB structure wherein SWCNT’s are placed at the centre and MWCNT’s at the periphery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
