Description
Book SynopsisIn this book, internationally recognized researchers give a state-of-the-art overview of the electronic device architectures required for the nano-CMOS era and beyond. The book covers the fundamental limits of core CMOS, improving scaling by the introduction of new materials or processes, multigates and multichannels, and quantum computing.
Trade Review"This book offers an excellent insight into the micro-to-nano transition that the electronics industry is currently engaged in. The different chapters clearly illustrate the latest stages of evolution of the 'classical' silicon transistor and explore next-generation devices which are likely to be its successor. It is an excellent reference for scientists and students interested in the future of electronics."
—Prof. Jean-Pierre Colinge, Tyndall National Institute, Ireland
"The internationally recognized authors of this book provide a fascinating, information-packed reference for scientists, engineers and students interested in ultimately scaled CMOS and the emerging new 'Beyond CMOS' device technologies. By encompassing this broad technological vista in a single volume, the authors provide unique perspectives into the current issues and future challenges facing the semiconductor industry as we expand information-processing technologies to completely new applications."
—Dr. Jim Hutchby, Semiconductor Research Corporation, USA
"This unique book is a must for everybody active in the field and/or interested in the technology of state-of-the-art and future electronic devices. Great work about small things."
—Prof. Cor Claeys, IMEC, Belgium
