IEEE is the world’s largest technical professional organization. It has over 427,000 members across 190 countries who are engineers, scientists and allied professionals. The organization produces over ...

As technology nodes shrink to 90 nanometers and below, chips become much more difficult to manufacture. In-die process variations increase substantially at 90 nm — even more at 65 nm. If these effects ...

Jinjun Xiong, SUNY Empire Innovation Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, has been elevated to fellow in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The ...

The semiconductor industry continually pushes the boundaries of device performance through advanced process modelling and epitaxial growth techniques. In this context, sophisticated simulation methods ...

To ensure success in semiconductor technology development, process engineers must set the allowed ranges for wafer process parameters. Variability must be controlled, so that final fabricated devices ...

People think that semiconductor process simulation libraries should be developed using a perfect theoretical background that is strongly supported by empirical data. This might be true in academic ...
