Oscillators Utilizing Ferroelectric-Based Transistors and Their Coupled Dynamics

We propose the application of ferroelectric (FE)-based transistors, viz., negative capacitance FET (NCFET) and Hysteretic ferroelectric FET (FEFET) in the design of coupled oscillators. The proposed oscillator utilizes hysteretic inverter voltage transfer characteristics, which is achieved by virtue of: 1) negative output conductance (NOC) in NCFETs and 2) hysteretic transfer characteristics in FE...
