Non-volatile memory (NVM) is a critical building block for most electronic systems. The most popular NVM technology has traditionally been flash. As a discrete...
Plasma etching is perhaps the most essential process in semiconductor manufacturing, and possibly the most complex of all fab operations next to photolithography. Nearly...
MOSFET gate resistance is a very important parameter, determining many characteristics of MOSFETs and CMOS circuits, such as:
• Switching speed• RC delay• Fmax –...
For more than 10 years, leading-edge semiconductor manufacturers have relied upon DuPont’s dual damascene products for achieving semiconductor technology nodes below...
Achieving improvements in performance in advanced SoCs and packages — those used in mobile applications, data centers, and AI — will require complex and...
Embedded memory makes computing applications run faster. In the early days of the semiconductor industry, the desire to utilize large amount of on-chip memory...
A new technical paper titled “Record RF Performance of Ultra-thin Indium Oxide Transistors with Buried-gate Structure” was published by researchers at Purdue University and...
The first computers were built using electro-mechanical components, unlike today’s modern electronic systems. Alan Turing’s cryptanalysis multiplier and Konrad Zuse’s Z2 were invented and...
Emphasis shifts from speed to reliability and customization, slowing various process steps and when they are performed; sidelined equipment gains traction.
