Abstract
This seminar is divided into two parts: In the first part, some general trends in nanoscale silicon-based CMOS technology will be briefly reviewed. As one of the examples of the industrial effort on pushing forward ultra-scalable IC technology, research on non-conventional transistor structure will be reflected with the focus on “three-dimensional” FinFET. In the second part of the seminar, the role of emerging nanostructures and nano-devices in the “post-silicon” era will be discussed. Graphene has received significant interests from academia and industry lab, attributed to its distinctive layered configuration, band structure, and quantum phenomena. The atomically-thin sheets could be potentially grown by conventional thin-film techniques. While graphene has been explored as both active and passive elements in future electronics, its gap-less nature implies fundamental limits that promote innovations in device principle. This seminar will introduce research results in prototype demonstrations of logic switches, non-volatile memories, interconnects, and sensors on emerging two-dimensional nanostructures. Major challenges and near-future research opportunities will be highlighted.
