Graduate Course HT1 2019:
State-of-the-art Electron Devices
Objectives
Modern electronic systems contains not only CMOS circuits but a diversity of device and circuit technologies. This course is intended to give a broader view of the state-of-the-art electronics than the devices and circuits that the Ph.D. students usually come into contact with during their research work.
Course outline
We will select 6-10 chapters from the book edited by Joachim Burghartz (see Literature below) that are of general interest but out of the student's normal areas of research, such as:
* Emerging devices
* Memory Technologies
* RF and Microwave Semiconductor Technologies
* Power Devices and ICs
* Photovoltaic Devices
* Large Area Electronics
* MEMS
* Vacuum Device Applications
* Optoelectronic Devices
* VLSI technology and circuits
* Mixed-Signal Technologies and Integrated Circuits
* Passive Components
* Devices for the Post CMOS Era
