STM confirms 20nm by end of 2012

The chief technology officer at STMicroelectronics, Jean-Marc Chery, today confirmed at the Field Trip conference in London that its first 20nm process will be going into production at its French fab by Q4 2012. [more]

Intel's timbers could be shivered. In Q1 2010 alone ST had revenue of $2,323 million USD and it was the #1 EMEA semiconductor company in 2009.

Toshiba Invention Brings Quantum Computing Closer

Quantum computers are likely to be used initially to solve problems that are otherwise virtually intractable, such as modeling new molecules in pharmaceuticals. The Toshiba team, working with the University of Cambridge's Cavendish Laboratory, described their invention in a paper in the journal Nature.

C4P MOS-AK/GSA ESSDERC/ESSCIRC Workshop:  http://www.mos-ak.org/seville/
"Frontiers of the Compact Modeling for Advanced Analog/RF Applications"

The MOS-AK/GSA Workshop in Seville will be organized as an integral
part of the ESSDERC/ESSCIRC Conference. The MOS-AK/GSA Workshop is
HiTech forum to discuss the frontiers of the electron devices modeling
with emphasis on simulation-aware models. Original papers presenting
new developments and advances in the compact/spice modeling and its
Verilog-A standardization are solicited. Suggested topics include (but
are not limited to):
   * Compact Modeling (CM) of the electron devices
   * Verilog-A language for CM standardization
   * New CM techniques and extraction software
   * CM of passive, active, sensors and actuators
   * Emerging Devices, CMOS and SOI-based memory cells
   * Microwave, RF device modeling, high voltage device modeling
   * Nanoscale CMOS devices and circuits
   * Technology R&D, DFY, DFT and IC Designs
   * Foundry/Fabless Interface Strategies

On-line abstract submission is open with the deadline on July 15, 2010.
