| Popis: | The temperature-dependent modeling technique (in the temperature range of 200–500[Formula: see text]K) for a mixed class of carbon nanotube (CNT) bundle interconnects is proposed. The equivalent single conductor (ESC) transmission line models of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) and double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT) are combined to develop multiple single conductor (MSC) model of mixed CNT interconnects. Various possible arrangements of densely packed MWCNT and DWCNT bundles (MDCB) are considered to form different types of mixed CNT bundle structures (MDCB-1, MDCB-2, MDCB-3 and MDCB-4). The integrated circuit emphasis simulation is performed and the performances of these mixed CNT bundle interconnects are investigated in terms of propagation delay (with and without crosstalk), power dissipation, power-delay product (PDP). Switching times, overshoot voltages and Nyquist plots are analyzed to check the stability of these mixed CNT structures for global interconnect length for 32-nm, 22-nm and 16-nm technology nodes. It is observed that the MDCB-1 structure yields the most promising result in all aspects for interconnect applications in the near future. |
