A seven-layer process was developed to fabricate monolithic high-speed
logic circuits, requiring integration of Schottky diodes and resistor
s with interband resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs). With this process t
echnology, we have demonstrated a functionally complete logic family b
ased on RTDs with a maximum operating frequency in excess of 12 GHz an
d a minimum power dissipation-on the order of 0.5 mW per gate. (C) 199
