This
reference text discusses conduction mechanism, structure construction,
operation, performance evaluation and applications of nanoscale
semiconductor materials and devices in VLSI circuits design.
The
text explains nano materials, devices, analysis of its design
parameters to meet the sub-nano-regime challenges for CMOS devices. It
discusses important topics including memory design and testing, fin
field-effect transistor (FinFET), tunnel field-effect transistor (TFET)
for sensors design, carbon nanotube field-effect transistor (CNTFET) for
memory design, nanowire and nanoribbons, nano devices based
low-power-circuit design, and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)
design.
The book
- discusses nanoscale semiconductor materials, device models, and circuit design
