A low power adder uses a non-linear polar capacitor to retain charge with fewer transistors than traditional CMOS sequential circuits. The non-linear polar capacitor includes ferroelectric material, paraelectric material, or non-linear dielectric. The adder may include minority gates and/or majority gates. Input signals are received by respective terminals of capacitors having non-linear polar material. The other terminals of these capacitors are coupled to a node where the majority function takes place for the inputs.

A logic gate includes a first capacitor to receive a first input, the first capacitor coupled to a node and a first diode structure coupled to the first input and the node. The logic gate future includes a second capacitor to receive a second input, the second capacitor coupled to the node and a second diode structure coupled to the second input and the node. The logic gate further includes a third capacitor to receive a third input, wherein the third capacitor is coupled to the node and a third diode structure coupled to the third input and the node.

The device structure further includes an insulative hydrogen barrier layer on at least a sidewall of the individual ones of the plurality of memory devices; and a plurality of via electrodes, wherein individual ones of the plurality of via electrodes are on a respective one of the individual ones of the plurality of memory devices.

Gate coupled non-linear polar material based capacitors for memory and logic

A multiplier cell is derived from a 1-bit full adder and an AND gate. The 1-bit full adder is derived from majority and/or minority gates. The majority and/or minority gates include non-linear polar material (e.g., ferroelectric or paraelectric material). A reset mechanism is provided to reset the nodes across the non-linear polar material. The multiplier cell is a hybrid of majority and/or minority gates and complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) based inverters and/or buffers. The adder uses a non-linear polar capacitor to retain charge with fewer transistors than traditional CMOS sequential circuits. The non-linear polar capacitor includes ferroelectric material, paraelectric material, or non-linear dielectric. Input signals are received by respective terminals of capacitors having non-linear polar material. The other terminals of these capacitors are coupled to a node where the majority function takes place for the inputs.

Asynchronous full-adder circuit is described. The full-adder includes majority and/or minority gates some of which receive two first inputs (A.t, A.f), two second inputs (B.t, B.f), two carry inputs (Cin.t, Cin.f), third acknowledgement input (Cout.e), and fourth acknowledgement input (Sum.e), and generate controls to control gates of transistors, wherein the transistors are coupled to generate two carry outputs (Cout.t, Cout.e), two sum outputs (Sum.t, Sum.e), first acknowledgement output (A.e), second acknowledgement output (B.e), and third acknowledgement output (Cin.e). The majority and/or minority gates comprise CMOS gates or multi-input capacitive circuitries. The multi-input capacitive circuitries include capacitive structures that may comprise linear dielectric, paraelectric dielectric, or ferroelectric dielectric. The capacitors can be planar or non-planar. The capacitors may be stacked vertically to reduce footprint of the asynchronous full-adder circuit. Asynchronous full-adders coupled in series is used to implement a carry-ripple adder.

FETs including a gated oxide semiconductor spacer interfacing with a channel semiconductor. Transistors may incorporate a non-oxide channel semiconductor, and one or more oxide semiconductors disposed proximal to the transistor gate electrode and the source/drain semiconductor, or source/drain contact metal. In advantageous embodiments, the oxide semiconductor is to be gated by a voltage applied to the gate electrode (i.e., gate voltage) so as to switch the oxide semiconductor between insulating and semiconducting states in conjunction with gating the transistor's non-oxide channel semiconductor between on and off states.
