The researches, who studied CNTFET scalability through changing halo doping, contaminated the channel with type-P atoms in the vicinity of the transistor source to increase the threshold voltage with decrease of channel length.
Talus Power Pro seamlessly integrates into the flow to provide significant leakage reduction through the use of multiple threshold voltage (multi-Vt) cells.
As long as this threshold voltage is achieved, the digital circuit is functional.
