T-3 Low-dimensional semiconductors for high performance, low power electronics

Prof. Yanqing Wu

Peking University,China

Abstract:
Low dimensional materials such as ultra thin oxide semiconductors and 2D materials show promising potentials for future electronic devices at the scaling limit due to their excellent electrical performance. In the more Moore direction, atomic channel 2D TMDCs has the ultimate scaling potential in the form of vertical-stacked CFET. The main challenges include mobility optimization, ohmic contact formation as well as high-k dielectric integration. In this tutorial, recent progress and future perspectives will be discussed to solve these challenges. In the more than Moore direction, back-end-of-line (BEOL) compatible transistors for logic and memory applications with high performance and low power face tremendous opportunities and challenges as well. In this tutorial, high performance BEOL-compatible amorphous oxide semiconductor transistors with ultra low leakage and high performance will be discussed toward the application for logic, RF, and 3D-DRAM applications. The key issues such as the scaling capability to 10 nm channel length, on-state performance and off-state leakage current will be addressed, as well as proof-of-concept circuit demonstrations including ring oscillators.
