AI for Science with GPT-6 Astra: Thermal Design and Electrothermal Analysis of 2D CFET

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 15, 2026 · UTC

Thermal optimization of 2D CFET inverters requires testing structural proposals against their electrical costs. We examine these research tasks using an AI agent workflow within a supplied electrothermal model. At 12 nm, Astra selects a redistributed source-interconnect geometry, while a coordinating agent proposes a substrate-directed heat-removal path. The combined design reduces peak temperature rise by 1.67 K at fixed metal volume and 20 μW. A subsequent metal-resistance sensitivity gives about 0.6-K inverter cooling alongside a 2% nFET on-current loss. Effective contact-length scaling fur
