Bursting and excitability in neuromorphic resonant tunneling diodes [PDF]
2021 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe & European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/Europe-EQEC), 2021 We study in this paper the dynamics of quantum nanoelectronic resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs) as excitable neuromorphic spike generators. We disclose the mechanisms by which the RTD creates excitable all-or-nothing spikes and we identify a regime of bursting in which the RTD emits a random number of closely packed spikes.

Enhanced current injection from a quantum well to a quantum dash in magnetic field
New Journal of Physics, 2014 Resonant tunneling injection is a key ingredient in achieving population inversion in a putative quantum dot cascade laser. In a quantum dot based structure, such resonant current requires a matching of the wavefunction shape in k -space between the ...

An Au25-R single-molecule tidal diode induced by the asymmetrical coupling
AIP Advances, 2022 As a basic electronic component, the diode has drawn much attention in single-molecule electronics. However, the single-molecule diode is limited to the conventional diode mode, switching to “on” with a forward voltage and to “off” whenever an opposite ...

SPICE model of the resonant-tunnelling diode
Electronics Letters, 1996 A SPICE3 model is developed for the resonant-tunnelling diode that combines a physical formulation of the coherent current component between zero bias and the valley point with an empirical formulation for the incoherent, or excess, current at bias voltages beyond the valley.

Negative Differential Resistance Behavior in Delta-Doped AlInP Structure Grown by MOCVD
Active and Passive Electronic Components, 2002 An AlInP delta-doped schottky diode exhibiting negative differential resistance (NDR) behavior is demonstrated for the first time. The NDR characteristics with a peak to valley ratio of 5.5 and peak current density of 1KA/cm2 were achieved at room ...
