Before circuit design can begin on any advanced semiconductor manufacturing process, the electrical behavior of the devices — transistors, diodes, resistors — must be described accurately in so-called ...

Electronic components are often only a few nanometres in size. According to Moore's Law, a transistor halves in size every two years, for example, which is the only possibility to place two billion ...

Electronic components such as capacitors and transistors play critical roles in aerospace, military, and communication systems, where long-term reliability is essential. However, long-life components ...

The transition from finFET technology to Gate-All-Around (GAA) technology helps to reduce transistor variability and resume channel length scaling. It also brings several new challenges in terms of ...

Just before fabrication, the design flow of all integrated circuits (ICs) culminates in transistor-based, top-level simulations. Unfortunately, verifying functionality, connectivity, and performance ...

As electronic devices become increasingly miniaturized, heat management at the nanoscale emerges as a challenge, especially for devices operating in sub-microns. Traditional heat conduction models ...

Ionic gating is known as a powerful tool for investigation of electronic functionalities stemming from low voltage transistor operation to gate-induced electronic phase control including ...

When first-pass silicon arrives back from the foundry, accurate simulation models are critical to first-time success. Of course, we all prefer to avoid expensive learning experiences. So every ...
