Call for Chapters

Title: Sub-Micron Semiconductor Devices: Design and Applications

Introduction: To follow Moore’s law, semiconductor devices are scaled-down without compromising the performance. Semiconductor devices are supposed to be reduced in dimensions and work at lower operating biases but the problem arises during the manufacturing of the devices. Thus, it is a dire necessity to opt for a solution that can help in continuing the path of performance improvement. Steady performance enhancement using optimization techniques can support the time required for advancements in fabrication technologies. This publication confines the novel semiconductor devices, issues with conventional devices, optimization techniques and solutions for the performance enhancement. Even with the presence of a vast amount of data regarding semiconductor devices, it is hard for a researcher to go through most of the recent advancements altogether and understand them in a clear way. The motive behind the book is to comprehensibly present the material related to the recent advancements in the field of semiconductor devices that can allow the reader to interpret the possible concepts behind the content. The study of novel semiconductor devices may help in unraveling the mystery behind the problems that are required to tackle during the fabrication of molecular devices.
