[mos-ak] MOS-AK/GSA Dresden workshop on-line publications

MOS-AK/GSA Dresden workshop on-line publications are available, visit: 

The MOS-AK/GSA Modeling Working Group, a global compact modeling standardization forum, held its annual spring workshop on April 26-27, 2012 at the Design Automation Division EAS of the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS in Dresden, Germany. More than 50 international academic researchers and modeling engineers attended four sessions to hear 16 technical compact modeling talks and poster presentations. The MOS-AK/GSA Modeling Working Group organized the event supported by Joachim Haase Fraunhofer IIS/EAS in Dresden, and a complementary X-FAB clean room visit, poster session and open networking event was hosted by Alexander Petr, X-FAB in Dresden.

As a result of an unfolded compact modeling discussion, the MOS-AK Group followed recommendation of Alexander Petr, X-FAB, a member of the Extended MOS-AK/GSA Compact Modeling Committee, to create a compact modeling open directory (CMOD:http://mos-ak.org/open_dir/). The directory will list available SPICE/Compact models including Verilog-A models for an extensive range of the semiconductor devices. The MOS-AK/GSA Group believes that the CMOD initiative will also stimulate further compact model developments for inter domain technologies and multidisciplinary applications.

I hope, we would have a next chance to meet us with your academic and industrial partners at future MOS-AK/GSA modeling events (check the list below).

Programme of the 2nd Training Course on Compact Modeling

The 2nd Training Course on Compact Modeling (TCCM) will be held in Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain) on June 28-29 2012.
 It will be organized by the NEPHOS Group, of the Department of Electronic, Electrical and Automatic Control Engineering at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Tarragona)..
The General Chairman is myself, Prof. Benjamin Iñiguez.

The Training Course on Compact Modeling will consist of l2 lectures addressing relevant topics in the compact modeling of advanced electron devices. These lectures will be conducted by top experts in the field. Most of the lectures will target compact modeling issues applicable to many electron devices. In particular, emphasis will be given on MOSFETs (bulk, SOI, Multi-Gate and High Voltage MOS structures) and HEMTs.
Attendees will  get very useful information on the different aspects of advenced device modelling. This training course is therefore recommended to Master and Ph D students, as well as postdocs and early stage researchers in companies, and not necessarily doing research on modelling.

Here is the final programme of the Training Course on Compact Modeling

PhD course on Nano-scale MOS transistors

Semi-classical modeling and applications
Udine, May 28 - June 1, 2012

Luca Selmi, David Esseni, Pierpaolo Palestri
DIEGM, Università degli Studi di Udine

The course aims at giving a description (in terms accessible to both physicists and electronic engineers) of advanced models for modern nano-MOSFET architectures exploiting technology boosters (strain, high-k materials, etc.) for enhanced channel mobility and reduced leakage. The prerequisite knowledge in physics is limited to the basic concepts of classical electrostatics and electrodynamics and elementary notions of quantum mechanics.

All information dealing with the application for such a scholarship and the eligibility criteria can be found on
