This book was released on 2007-09-18 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Twelfth International Conference on Simulation of Semiconductor Processes and Devices" (SISPAD 2007) continues a long series of conferences and is held in September 2007 at the TU Wien, Vienna, Austria. The conference is the leading forum for Technology Computer-Aided Design (TCAD) held alternatingly in the United States, Japan, and Europe. The first SISPAD conference took place in Tokyo in 1996 as the successor to three preceding conferences NUPAD, VPAD, and SISDEP. With its longstanding history SISPAD provides a world-wide forum for the presentaƯ tion and discussion of outstanding recent advances and developments in the field of numerical process and device simulation. Driven by the ongoing miniaturization in semiconductor fabrication technology, the variety of topics discussed at this meeting reflects the ever-growing complexity of the subject. Apart from the classic topics like process, device, and interconnect simulation, mesh generation, a broad specƯ trum of numerical issues, and compact modeling, new simulation approaches like atomistic and first-principles methods have emerged as important fields of research and are currently making their way into standard TCAD suites

This book was released on 2004-08-24 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide-bandgap semiconductor that can operate at temperatures well above 300ºC, where silicon cannot perform. In addition, due to a high thermal conductivity equal to copper at room temperature, SiC is an ideal candidate for operation in harsh environments and at high-power levels. Rapid advances in SiC materials and devices have recently resulted in implementation of SiC-based electronic systems, and the impact of these devices is expected to significantly increase in the next several years. This book documents the most recent results on growth of bulk and epitaxial layers, physical and structural properties, process technology, and device development obtained since the 10th International Conference on Silicon Carbide and Related Materials 2003 (ICSCRM2003) held in Lyon, France. Extended defects in silicon carbide are highlighted. The nature of defects induced by forward biasing of bipolar devices, as well as methods to suppress the degradation, are addressed.

This book was released on 2004-09-03 with total page 776 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book celebrates 20 years of MRS symposia on the topic of amorphous silicon. Contributors showed that the simplified theories developed to explain the limited experimental information available in the early eighties have spurred more sophisticated experimentation - either refining the early understanding or making it irrelevant. The differences of opinion that continue to exist and emerge are probably the hallmark of the amazing vitality of this field. Applications range from 'mature' thin-film transistors, solar cells and image sensors, to the 'emerging' possibility of erbium-doped nanocrystalline silicon-based materials for lasers and amorphous silicon quantum dots for luminescent devices. The book discusses material characterization, growth processes and devices. Each chapter is further subdivided into sections that group papers around common themes. Topics include: nanomaterials; electronic structure; metastable effects; understanding of growth processes; laser-induced crystallization; metal-induced crystallization; other growth techniques; newer devices; solar cells and thin-film transistors.

Download or read book Semiconductor Materials for Sensing written by Materials Research Society. Meeting and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Members of the sensor community come together here to discuss advances in the development of new or improved semiconductor materials and in the fundamental understanding of the physical/chemical/biological phenomena at the origin of the sensing mechanism. Contributions dealing with sensor electronics/signal processing, computing algorithms, and packaging are not included in the volume. Chemical, magnetic, radiation, acoustic, mechanical, and biosensors are featured, as are nanosensors. Several papers highlight advances in combinatorial materials synthesis and theoretical modeling, and simulation of gas-solid interactions based on density functional theory. A combined application of sophisticated experimental and theoretical tools aimed at design and synthesis of novel sensors may have a lasting impact on general research approaches in the chemical sensor community. Presentations from a joint session with Symposium K, Solid-State Ionics, are also included and focus on solid electrolytes for membrane applications to develop selective sensors. Topics include: advanced materials and processing; nanotubes and nanowires; solid state ionics-based sensors; modeling, mechanism and structure-properties relationships; biochemical sensors; integration; and physical sensors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanopattern formation on surfaces is influenced by many processes involving kinetics, mechanics and thermodynamics. This volume presents recent advances in technology and in scientific understanding of nanopatterning in a variety of amaterials systems. A particular emphasis is on developments in surface nanopatterning as a result of kinetics. Various other factors, such as mechanical strain and particle-source collimation, are intimately coupled with the kinetics. The book covers self-assembly and various fabrication processes of nanostructures, the fundamental mechanisms of nanostructure formation, and related topics. The papers are a valuable source of reference for researchers entering the field of nanostructures formation on surfaces. In addition, several invited papers provide a critical literature assessment, which should also prove helpful to those new to the field.
