Abstract
Integrated circuits including static random-access memory (SRAM) bit-cells that are actively cooled to a low temperature (e.g., in the cryogenic range) where transistor drive currents become significantly increased and transistor leakage currents significantly reduced. With the drive current improvement, bit-cell capacitance may be reduced by defining narrower transistor fin structures and/or four transistor (4T) bit-cells may be implemented, for example with two parallel transistor fins and colinear gate electrodes.
