Integration with Silicon-Based Microelectronics

Herausgeber: Li, Tingkai; Dadgar, Armin; Mastro, Michael

Beschreibung

Silicon-based microelectronics has steadily improved in various performance-to-cost metrics. But after decades of processor scaling, fundamental limitations and considerable new challenges have emerged. The integration of compound semiconductors is the leading candidate to address many of these issues and to continue the relentless pursuit of more powerful, cost-effective processors. III-V Compound Semiconductors: Integration with Silicon-Based Microelectronics covers recent progress in this area, addressing the two major revolutions occurring in the semiconductor industry: integration of compound semiconductors into Si microelectronics, and their fabrication on large-area Si substrates. The authors present a scientific and technological exploration of GaN, GaAs, and III-V compound semiconductor devices within Si microelectronics, building a fundamental foundation to help readers deal with relevant design and application issues. Explores silicon-based CMOS applications developed within the cutting-edge DARPA program Providing an overview of systems, devices, and their component materials, this book: Describes structure, phase diagrams, and physical and chemical properties of III-V and Si materials, as well as integration challenges Focuses on the key merits of GaN, including its importance in commercializing a new class of power diodes and transistors Analyzes more traditional III-V materials, discussing their merits and drawbacks for device integration with Si microelectronics Elucidates properties of III-V semiconductors and describes approaches to evaluate and characterize their attributes Introduces novel technologies for the measurement and evaluation of material quality and device properties Investi

Autor

Tingkai Li, Ph.D., is currently working at Micron Technology, Inc. as a senior technical member. He published over 100 technical papers, edited three preceding books, and was granted 93 US patents and many awards related in semiconductor and compound semiconductor device and materials research. He is an invited paper reviewer of the Applied Physics Letter, Journal of Applied Physics, IEEE Electron Device Letter, IEEE Transaction of Electron Device, etc., and overseas editor of Journal of Inorganic Materials. He is also honorary professor at Hunan University, Wuhan University of Technologies, and Zhejiang University in China. Dr. Li received a Ph.D. degree in Materials Science and Engineering from Zhejiang University, P. R. China, in 1987, and was a postdoctoral fellow and research scientist at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, Virginia from 1989-1995. From 1995-1998, he worked as a Staff Scientist in EMCORE Cooperation, New Jersey. He joined Sharp Laboratories in 1998 as a principal member of technical staff and project manager. Michael Mastro, currently a civilian staff scientist at the U.S. Naval Research Lab, has more than 10 years of research experience in thin film growth and characterization, as well as semiconductor device design and nano-fabrication. This includes a number of fundamental advances in the fabrication of planar LEDs and high-power electronic devices, in addition to the development of novel nano-devices, which has resulted in authorship on more than 100 papers and patents. Michael earned a Ph.D. from the University of Florida in 2001 and a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the Johns Hopkins University in 1997. Armin Dadgar studied physics at University of Heidelberg and at TU-Berlin, where he received his doctor of natural sciences in 1999, successfully developing an alternative method to Fe doping to obtain semiinsulating InP b
