IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) 2011

Starting this year (2011) there is an increased emphasis on circuit and device interaction. With ever increasing transistor count, nanometer design rules and layout restrictions, circuit-device interaction is becoming critical to providing viable technology solutions. This new emphasis includes technology/circuit co-optimization, power/performance/area analyses, design for manufacturing and process control, as well as CMOS platform technology and scaling.
