How Does Increased Leakage Affect Device Performance?
Increased leakage currents can significantly impact device performance in several ways:
Power Consumption: Leakage currents contribute to static power consumption, which is particularly critical for battery-powered and energy-efficient devices. Device Reliability: The unwanted currents can lead to thermal runaway and degradation of materials, affecting the long-term reliability of the device. Signal Integrity: Leakage currents can introduce noise, affecting the accuracy and integrity of signals in nanoelectronic circuits.
