Based on transmission line modeling (TLM), and using the Nichols chart, we present a bandwidth and stability analysis, together with step time responses, for coupled multilayer graphene nanoribbon (MLGNR) interconnects that is inquired for the first time. In this analysis, the dependence of the degree of crosstalk relative stability for coupled MLGNR interconnects comprising of both capacitive and mutual-inductive couplings between adjacent MLGNR has been acquired. The obtained results show that with increasing the length or decreasing the width of the MLGNRs, the stability in near-end output increases. While, any increase in the length or width of MLGNRs, decrease the stability of far-end output. Also, by increasing capacitive coupling or decreasing inductive coupling, the near-end output becomes more stable, and the far-end output becomes less stable. Moreover, any increase in the length or capacitive coupling, decreases the bandwidth, whereas any increase in the width or inductive coupling, increases the bandwidth. Finally, transient simulations with Advanced Design System (ADS) show that the model has an excellent accuracy. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
