Using Emerging Technologies for Hardware Security Beyond PUFs

We discuss how the unique I–V characteristics offered by emerging, post-CMOS transistors can be used to enhance hardware security. Different from most existing work that exploits emerging technologies for hardware security, we (i) focus on transistor characteristics that either do not exist in, or are difficult to duplicate with MOSFETs, and (ii) aim to move beyond hardware implementations of physically unclonable functions (PUFs) and random number generators (RNGs).
