Stencil lithography is an innovative method for patterning that has a great flexibility from many points of view. It is based on shadow mask evaporation using thin silicon nitride membranes that allow the patterning of sub-100 nm features up to 100 μm in a ...
For the past couple of decades the desire to add more complexity to a computer chip, while simultaneously reducing the cost per bit, has been accommodated by down-scaling. This approach has been extremely successful in the past, but like all good things it ...
Modern communication devices demand challenging specifications in terms of miniaturization, performance, power consumption and cost. Every new generation of radio frequency integrated circuits (RF-ICs) offer better functionality at reduced size, power cons ...
Si nanowire (NW) stacks are fabricated by utilizing the scalloping effect of inductively coupled plasma deep reactive ion etching. When two etch windows are brought close enough, scallops from both sides will ideally meet along the dividing centerline of t ...

Scaling of semiconductor devices has pushed CMOS devices close to fundamental limits. The remarkable success story of Moore's law during the last 40 years, predicting the evolution of electronic device performances related to miniaturization, has always be ...
Wireless communication systems and handset devices are showing a rapid growth in consumer and military applications. Applications using wireless communication standards such as personal connectivity devices (Bluetooth), mobile systems (GSM, UMTS, WCDMA) an ...
The aim of this research is to develop and to evaluate devices and circuits performances based on ultrathin nanograin polysilicon wire (polySiNW) dedicated to room temperature operated hybrid CMOS-"nano" integrated circuits. The proposed polySiNW device is ...
Nanowire crossbar circuits are an emerging architectural paradigm that promises a higher integration density and an improved fault-tolerance due to its reconfigurability. In this paper, we propose for the first time the utilization of the multi-spacer patt ...
For the purpose of integrating nanomechanical structures with CMOS circuitry, nanostencil lithography ensures parallel patterning for rapid processing at wafer scale and nanometer-sized features definition. Moreover, this patterning technique is compatible ...
Using the epitaxy-on electronics (EoE) process, self-electrooptic effect devices (SEED's) have been monolithically integrated with VLSI GaAs electronics., The EoE approach provides both depletion-mode and enhancement-mode MESFET's for large-scale, high-den ...
