make use of 300-mm wafers. "Our ongoing research allows us to stay on the forefront of transistor design, which translates into increasingly powerful processors. Transistor technology is the 'engine' ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) For over fifty years, the relentless miniaturization of silicon transistors has upheld Moore’s Law, delivering exponential leaps in computing power. However, this development ...

For decades, field-effect transistors enabled by silicon-based semiconductors have powered the electronics revolution. But in recent years, manufacturers have come up against hard physical limits to ...

Quickly learn what the difference is between PMOS and NMOS transistors in their structure and operation, and how CMOS works with the two in combination. Siliwiz, a free, browser-based, ASIC layout ...

As transistors are scaled to smaller dimensions, their static power increases. Combining two-dimensional (2D) channel materials with complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) logic architectures ...

Not so long ago, a computer filled a whole room and radio receivers were as big as washing machines. In recent decades, electronic devices have shrunk considerably in size and this trend is expected ...

With the development of novel titanium-silicidation techniques, imec Ph.D. student Hao Yu presents improved source/drain contact schemes which help solving the contact resistance challenge for ...

Since CMOS has been around for about 50 years, a comprehensive history would be a book. This blog focuses on what I consider the major transitions. Before CMOS, there was NMOS (also PMOS, but I have ...
