Signal Integrity Assessment of GNRFET-Based Ternary Logic for Multi Layered GNR Interconnects with Dielectric Insertion

In this paper, signal integrity assessment is carried out for graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (GNRFET) based ternary logic with dielectric inserted multi-layered GNR (MLGNR) interconnects. The analyses are carried out for crosstalk effects and eye diagrams with and without shielding lines. In this paper firstly, it is observed that the dielectric inserted MLGNR interconnects show better than copper (Cu) and multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) interconnects. Secondly, active shield technique is adopted, and observed that it exhibits better performance than without shield and passive shield techniques. Also, the power-delay product performance parameter is evaluated and envisaged that active shield technique outperforms passive technique. Further, the eye diagram analysis is carried out for different bit rates. The different performance analyses in the paper have been carried out for 10 nm technology node.
