Physics and Modeling Considerations for VLSI Devices

  • Chapter
The Physics of Submicron Structures

Abstract

Recent results concerning spatial and temporal transport in submicron devices identify significant aspects of the role of boundary conditions, scaling for suggesting new materials, and structural device changes. These results are discussed as a means of achieving high speed and high frequency devices.
