ETB Memory transition Alternate Channel Materials Floating Body Memory MRAM and NW PCRAM Cross ERD/PIDS Collaboration Discussion
Alternate Channel Materials ETB Memories ERD/FEP Collaboration Discussion
Transport in Alternative Channel Materials (e.g. strain effects in p-type III-V’s and Ge) Commercially available DFT Models with Excited States Transport in ultra-scaled devices – good model for scattering to ballistic transition needed. Need to simulate I-V curves for on-state and off-state memory devices listed in ERD. Device and process modeling for above bullets. ERD/Model & Simulation Discussion
Boundary between analog and digital devices – where are the opportunities for analog devices in a power constrained environment? How would availability of 3-D transistors or 3-D functions change your lives? (Nano-wires oriented vertically). What design tool innovations are required to incorporate new devices. Newer current sensing with Ion/Ioff of 10 or less? ERD/Design Discussion
We are recommending consideration of 8-12 bits precision analog for main stream info processing High precision A/D conversion (8-12 bits) Spin torque oscillators and/or RTD oscillators? Where’s the model for STO’s? Do you consider MEMS RF switches? ERD/RF & Analog MS Discussion
Small geometrical metrologies, obtaining a reasonable signal/noise ratio – study, determine, and manage noise sources. Extract the signal from noise. Issue of contamination of nano-scaled devices Time resolved magnetic measurements. Ability to perform real time measurements, e.g. phase transitions. Wide band characterizations of rf devices – above 100 GHz. Questions from Metrology PCM – Near mfg? MRAM – Near mfg? – In production.

Critical Review of 2007 ERD • Toshiro Hiramoto • University of Tokyo • Guiding Principles • Scope • Difficult Challenges • Taxonomy
Guiding Principles: Beyond CMOS 1. Computational State Variable(s) other than Solely Electron Charge 2. Non-thermal Equilibrium Systems 3. Novel Energy Transfer Interactions 4. Nanoscale Thermal Management 5. Sub-lithographic Manufacturing Process 6. Emerging Architectures In this case, architecture is the functional arrangement of interconnected devices that includes embedded computational components. These architectures could utilize, for special purposes, novel devices other than CMOS to perform unique functions. Does this GP include both topics below or just the second topic? • New architectures with conventional MOSFET devices • New architectures with beyond CMOS devices onCMOS infrastructure.
Guiding Principles – cont’d (a) First five principles - The same as the 2005 version - Well recognized as beyond CMOS guiding principles (b) The last principles - Divided into two principles or describe clearly that there are two approaches (?) (1) New architectures with conventional devices (2) New architectures with beyond CMOS devices on CMOS infrastructure.
Research Needs (Beyond CMOS, US) • Information processing technologies using state variables other than charge? • Devices that operate out of equilibrium with the thermal bath? • Information transfer (i.e., interconnect) mechanisms that are not electromagnetic in nature? • Phonon engineering for advanced thermal management? • Directed self-assembly for information processing applications including size, shape and position control of complex nanostructures? • Devices that are amenable to non-Boolean logic? • Metrology and characterization for nanoscale information processing technologies? • Modeling and simulation for future information processing technologies? • Hybrid/heterogeneous information processing technologies including design methodologies? • Design and fabrication of very complex information processing technologies using defective/unreliable components? • Environmentally benign manufacturing materials and processes for nanoscale information processing technologies? • Fundamental limits dictated by physics for nanoscale information processing technologies? • Metrics to gauge the potential for success of nanoscale information processing technologies?
New Research Needs (Japan) 14. More than Moore? 15. Memory 16. Functional CMOS design with beyond CMOS devices and new materials 17. Architecture with conventional devices - 3D- Memory/Logic - BDD 18. Self learning circuit network? - device - circuits - architecture
