Modeling and simulation of graphene three branch junction using verilog-A

Graphene three-branch junction device (G-TBJ) is a non-conventional device that offers promising potential in various application in digital (e.g. logic gates) and analog (frequency mixer, etc) circuit. Operation of G-TBJ can be explained by a capacitor-based equivalent circuit. However, the propose...
