Abstract

We have developed structures with two well-defined negative differential resistance (NDR) regions by sequentially growing two resonant tunneling devices separated by an n+ connecting layer. Devices fabricated from these structures exhibited three stable operating points for multilevel logic circuits and were used in circuits which multiplied the input signal frequency by 3 or 5. This approach can be extended to obtain more than two NDR regions by vertical integration of additional resonant tunneling structures.
