By Linda Christensen - 05 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

New technical papers added to Semiconductor Engineering’s library this week. [table id=67 /] If you have research papers you are trying to promote, we will review them to see if they are a good fit for our global audience. At a minimum, papers need to be well researched and documented, relevant to the semiconductor ecosystem, and free of marketing bias. There is no cost involved for u... » read more

Chip Sandwich: Electronics Chip & Photonics Chip Co-Optimized To Work Together (CalTech/Univ. of Southampton)
By Technical Paper Link - 01 Dec, 2022 - Comments: 0

A technical paper titled "A 100-Gb/s PAM4 Optical Transmitter in a 3-D-Integrated SiPh-CMOS Platform Using Segmented MOSCAP Modulators" was published by researchers at CalTech and University of Southampton. "The resulting optimized interface between the two chips allows them to transmit 100 gigabits of data per second while producing just 2.4 pico-Joules per transmitted bit. This improves th... » read more

Week In Review: Semiconductor Manufacturing, Test
By Karen Heyman - 18 Nov, 2022 - Comments: 0

Chinese memory chip maker YMTC and dozens of other Chinese entities are "at risk" of being added to a trade blacklist as soon as Dec. 6, a U.S. Commerce Department official said in prepared remarks seen by Reuters. SMIC co-CEO Zhao Haijun said on an earnings call that recent export controls from the United States will have an "adverse impact" on the company's production. The U.K. has rule... » read more

A new technical paper titled "An Adversarial Active Sampling-based Data Augmentation Framework for Manufacturable Chip Design" was published by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin, Nvidia, and the California Institute of Technology. Abstract: "Lithography modeling is a crucial problem in chip design to ensure a chip design mask is manufacturable. It requires rigorous simulation... » read more

Week In Review: Semiconductor Manufacturing, Test
By Karen Heyman - 14 Oct, 2022 - Comments: 0

The United States imposed further export controls aimed at preventing foreign firms from selling advanced chips to China or supplying Chinese firms with semiconductor processing tools. Under new regulations, companies looking to supply Chinese chipmakers with advanced manufacturing equipment (<14nm) must first obtain a license from the U.S. Department of Commerce. Officials noted that they h... » read more

The research claims the electro-optic frequency device is 100% more efficient and has 2X the bandwidth of previous technology.    According to Harvard's news release, "the latest research applies the two con... » read more

Quantum Research Bits: Sept. 12
By Ed Sperling - 12 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 1

Making Qubits Last Longer One of the big challenges in quantum computing is extending the lifespan of qubits, called coherence time, long enough to do something useful with them. Research is now focused on how to increase that usable lifetime, and what factors can impact that. This has led to very different conclusions about whether silicon is a good substrate choice for quantum chips. Rese... » read more
