4-Terminal Piezoelectronic Transistor (PET)

A 4-terminal piezoelectronic transistor (PET) which includes a piezoelectric (PE) material disposed between first and second electrodes; an insulator material disposed on the second electrode; a third electrode disposed on the insulator material and a piezoresistive (PR) material disposed between the third electrode and a fourth electrode. An applied voltage across the first and second electrodes causing a pressure from the PE material to be applied to the PR material through the insulator material, the electrical resistance of the PR material being dependent upon the pressure applied by the PE material. The first and second electrodes are electrically isolated from the third and fourth electrodes. Also disclosed are logic devices fabricated from 4-terminal PETs and a method of fabricating a 4-terminal PET.
