    Multiple logic devices are presently under study within the Nanoelectronic Research Initiative (NRI) to carry the development of integrated circuits beyond the complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) roadmap. Structure and operational principles of these devices are described. Theories used for benchmarking these devices are overviewed, and a general methodology is described for consistent estimates of the circuit area, switching time, and energy. The results of the comparison of the NRI logic devices using these benchmarks are presented.
