NANOARCH - Spin wave nanofabric update
Proceedings of the 2012 IEEE ACM International Symposium on Nanoscale Architectures - NANOARCH '12, 2012Co-Authors: Juan G. Alzate, Kang L Wang, Pramey Upadhyaya, Mark Lewis, J. Nath, Yen-ting Lin, Kin L. Wong, S. S. Cherepov, P. Khalili Amiri, Joshua L. HockelAbstract:We provide a progress update on the spin wave nanofabric. The nanofabric comprises magneto-electric cells and spin wave buses serving for spin wave propagation. The magneto-electric cells are used as the input/output ports for information transfer between the charge and the spin domains, while information processing inside the nanofabric is via spin waves only. Information is encoded into the phase of the propagating spin wave, which makes it possible to utilize waveguides as passive Logic elements and take the advantage of using wave superposition for data processing. This provides a fundamental advantage over the conventional transistor-based Logic Circuitry allowing for functional throughput enhancement and power consumption minimization at the same time. We present recent accomplishments in the magneto-electric element development and integration with spin wave buses. In particular, we show the excitation and detection of the spin waves via multiferroic elements. In addition, we present different approaches to magnonic Logic circuit engineering and provide the comparison with CMOS by mapping the designs to 45nm NANGATE standard cell libraries. The estimates show more than 40X power reduction and 53X area reduction for magnonic circuits. These results illustrate the potential advantages over conventional charge based electronics that could be a route to beyond CMOS Logic Circuitry.

spin wave magnetic nanofabric a new approach to spin based Logic Circuitry
IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 2008Co-Authors: Alexander Khitun, Kang L WangAbstract:We describe a magnetic nanofabric, which may provide a route to building reconfigurable spin-based Logic circuits compatible with conventional electron-based devices. A distinctive feature of magnetic nanofabric is that a bit of information is encoded into the phase of the spin wave signal. This makes it possible to transmit information without the use of electric current and to utilize wave interference for useful Logic functionality. The basic elements include voltage-to-spin-wave and wave-to-voltage converters, spin waveguides, a spin wave modulator, and a magnetoelectric cell. We illustrate the performance of the basic elements by experimental data and the results of numerical modeling. The combination of the basic elements leads us to construct magnetic circuits for NOT and majority Logic gates. Logic gates such as AND, OR, NAND, and NOR are shown as the combination of NOT and reconfigurable majority gates. Examples of computational architectures such as a multibit processor and a cellular nonlinear network are described. The main advantage of the proposed magnetic nanofabric is its ability to realize Logic gates with fewer devices than in CMOS-based circuits. Potentially, the area of the elementary reconfigurable majority gate can be scaled down to 0.1 mum2. We also discuss the disadvantages and limitations of the magnetic nanofabric.

spin wave magnetic nanofabric a new approach to spin based Logic Circuitry
arXiv: Other Condensed Matter, 2007Co-Authors: Alexander Khitun, Mingqiang Bao, Kang L WangAbstract:We propose and describe a magnetic NanoFabric which provides a route to building reconfigurable spin-based Logic circuits compatible with conventional electron-based devices. A distinctive feature of the proposed NanoFabric is that a bit of information is encoded into the phase of the spin wave signal. It makes possible to transmit information without the use of electric current and utilize wave interference for useful Logic functionality. The basic elements include voltage-to-spin wave and wave-to-voltage converters, spin waveguides, a modulator, and a magnetoelectric cell. As an example of a magnetoelectric cell, we consider a two-phase piezoelectric-piezomagnetic system, where the spin wave signal modulation is due to the stress-induced anisotropy caused by the applied electric field. The performance of the basic elements is illustrated by experimental data and results of numerical modeling. The combination of the basic elements let us construct magnetic circuits for NOT and Majority Logic gates. Logic gates AND, OR, NAND and NOR are shown to be constructed as the combination of NOT and a reconfigurable Majority gates. The examples of computational architectures such as Cellular Automata, Cellular Nonlinear Network and Field Programmable Gate Array are described. The main advantage of the proposed NanoFabric is in the ability to realize Logic gates with less number of devices than it required for CMOS-based circuits. Potentially, the area of the elementary reconfigurable Majority gate can be scaled down to 0.1um2. The disadvantages and limitations of the proposed NanoFabric are discussed.

Magnonic holographic co-processor: An approach to energy-efficient complementary Logic Circuitry
2015 Fourth Berkeley Symposium on Energy Efficient Electronic Systems (E3S), 2015Co-Authors: Alexander KhitunAbstract:Power consumption has emerged as the major problem limiting the scalability and the functional throughput of modern Logic devices [1]. This problem has stimulated a great deal of interest to research alternative technologies, which may overcome the constraints inherent to complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)-based Circuitry and provide a route to more functional and less power-consuming Logic devices. Spintronics is one of the possible directions [2]. The utilization of spin opened a new horizon for the development of non-volatile memory and Logic elements. It also offers novel approaches to data transfer. The integration of the spin-based components will require new architecture solutions. In this work, we discuss the possibility of building Magnonic Holographic Co-Processor (MHcP) aimed to complement CMOS in special task data processing. The main advantage of MHcP is combination of memory and Logic in one unit. This idea is illustrated in Figure 1. On the left side, it is shown the Von Neumann architecture scheme. It consists of Memory, Control Unit and Arithmetic Logic Unit. The separation between the memory and the Logic units is an attribute of the traditional architecture. On the right side of Figure 1, there are shown the schematics of MHcP, where the large portion of memory is embedded into the magnonic holographic Logic unit. This architecture solution allows significantly minimize power consumption required for memory addressing and information transfer between the units. The advantage is most prominent in special task data processing requiring large amount of memory resources (e.g. database search).

SugaAbstract:In this paper, an asynchronous high-speed Logic Circuitry using low temperature poly silicon-thin film transistor (LTPS-TFT) and the bootstrapped technology (BST) for liquid crystal display (LCD) is proposed. The proposed Logic circuit operates at high frequency region owing to the deep non-saturation operation by using the bootstrapped technology. To confirm some characteristics of the proposed circuit, an inverter and a NAND gate circuits are simulated.

Gate Body directly connected SOI MOSFET suppresses Sees historical effects and is promised technologies that let the Logic Circuitry work in ultra low voltage. Compared to Bulk-Si MOSFET, GBSOI can reduce its power supply voltage by 30%, its current by 26% and its power dissipation by 47%.
