Abstract
The letter proposes a flip-flop circuit using a resonant-tunnelling hot electron transistor (RHET). The circuit uses a resistor in series with the base of the RHET to make bistable states. Preliminary tests have demonstrated that the circuit can be used as a static memory element, indicating that the RHET has a superior potential for use in memory and/or logic circuits.
