- 9What happens to the experimental truth table of the logic NOR gate?Vo decreases if Vi1 or Vi2 is 1

- 10When the logic NOR gate is logic 0, what state is each of the three transistors constituting the logic NOR gate in? Explain why logic 0 is observed at the logic NOR gate when the three transistors are in that state.The logic-0 is observed when either one or both of the inputs is high. In this case, one or both of the transistors are off and have resistances much higher than the constant resistor, and thus most of the voltage drops across the transistors.
- 11(5 points) When the logic NOR gate is logic 1, what is the state of each of the three transistors constituting the logic NOR gate? Explain why logic 0 is observed at the logic NOR gate when the three transistors are in that state.A logic-1 state can only be achieved when both of the transistors are on; that is, both inputs low.

NOR gates are configured with 2.5 V applied to one cNW-FET to create a constant resistance around 100 megaohms, and with the p-SiNW channel biased at 5 V.
• The two remaining n-GaN NW inputs are used as gates for two cNW-FETs in series. In this way, the output depends on the resistance ratio of the two cNW-FETs and the constant resistor.

Explain the configuration and operating principle of a pH sensor using the results below.A Si NW solid state FET whose conductance is modulated by applied gate is transformed into a nanosensor by modifying the silicon oxide surface with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane(APTES).
• The APTES provides a surface that can undergo protonation and deprotonation, where changes in surface charge (protonation) chemically gate the Si NW.
• The responses of APTES-modified Si NWs to changes in solution pH demonstrate that the NW conduction increases stepwise with discrete changes in pH from 2 to 9 and that the conductance is constant for a given pH
