Title of Presentation: | Scaling on Schedule: Clever solutions that keep Moore’s law alive |
Abstract:
|
For over six decades, engineers have strived to maintain the breakneck pace of exponential transistor scaling alive, delivering a node every couple of years. This has required a series of innovative solutions rooted in engineering, device physics and material science. This talk will outline a few of these key ideas, starting with hi-k metal gate transistors all the way up to modern day gate-all-around transistors. |
