Green transistor as a solution to the IC power crisis

IC power consumption is not only a package thermal issue but also a significant and fast growing part of the world electricity consumption. A new low voltage transistor could contribute greatly to the need for a new Vdd scaling scenario. Green transistor (gFET) is based on tunneling and provides I
