Two transistors share a floating gate allowing one to exist directly in a circuit while the other is reserved for programming. Since the transistor does not need to be disconnected from the circuit to ...

A technical paper titled “Analysis of Logic-in-Memory Full Adder Circuit With Floating Gate Field Effect Transistor (FGFET)” was published by researchers at Konkuk University, Korea National ...

Memory based on such organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) has been investigated before 3,4, but Baeg et al. 1 are the first to report programming speeds of around 1 microsecond — a million ...

If electrons are present on the floating gate, the transistor will not conduct current, indicating a "0" state. If the floating gate is empty, the transistor will conduct current, representing a "1" ...

In use, the floating gate of the transistor would be programmed to a known state (taking about 50 million electrons, according to the University), then left un-powered for hours or days to be affected ...

“We had made OFET memories before (containing a polymer/C60 composite floating-gate interlayer) that could also be erased using low-intensity green light (of 0.5 mW/cm 2) and in which we could ...

A floating-gate transistor can thus serve as a memory element, with the floating gate's charge representing the stored data value. Since the technology's introduction, many memory device types have ...

The floating gate name comes from the fact that the normal transistor gate is isolated from the source and drain by an insulating layer of oxide. The gate "floats" between the two insulating ...
