Research Statement

The microelectronics sector has spurred a global information revolution through the persistent drive to make semiconductor devices faster, smaller and cheaper. For the past four decades, the minimum feature size employed to fabricate integrated circuits have exponentially decreased and the corresponding enhancement in transistor performance is also achieved. The catalyst at the heart of this progress has been a relentless pursuit of advances characterized by the famous “Moore’s Law” observation.

 
Professor Hugo De Man, co-founder of IMEC, has identified the period from 1980 to 1995 as the era of “happy scaling” since simple transistor miniaturization went hand in hand with higher performances and lower costs and brought in the proliferation of ASICs. However, these euphoric days are over and concomitantly we are confronted with the difficulties to achieve performance improvement as MOS devices approach scaling limits. Aiming at the phenomenon that size and speed of future chips would eventually slow down because of the limits of silicon, Gordon Moore, co-founder of Intel, remarked ”No exponential forever. But you can delay forever.” We are now at the critical juncture in silicon technology innovation. What can we do to delay forever?
 
Strained silicon and high-k gate dielectric are the hottest solution to overcome this difficulty. For strained silicon, SiGe is the well-known material to introduce strain to the MOS device, what else is there to study for SiGe? Is strained silicon the ultimate option for channel material of MOS device? For high-k materials, besides logic devices, what is its impact on the performance of memory device?
