Intel's 18A fabrication process features a high-density SRAM bit ... to its previous-generation technologies that rely on FinFET transistors. It should be noted that in addition to SRAM bit ...

Turning nanowires into FETs unlocks ultra-small, high-performance transistors with improved electrostatic control and ...

One of the downsides of FinFET is its complex manufacturing process. According to Intel, the cost of FinFET manufacturing can increase by 2-3% over bulk. Intel introduced Trigate FETs at the 22 nm ...

Thermal characteristics for the 16nm FinFET node are much more complex to model due to the fin dimension of the device. For the planar CMOS process, the heat generated is usually dissipated through ...

Figure 1 Sketch of the critical fabrication steps is shown in a gate-first integration ... Just like for the planar versions, the DRAM-specific requirements preclude a copy-paste of FinFET process ...

The tape out is the final stage of the design process, with the next step being manufacturing ... replacing the previous FinFET architecture that was introduced in 2011. The move to RibbonFET ...

This process qualification vehicle will provide early silicon data, enabling UMC to tune its 14-nm FinFET process and Synopsys to refine ... foundry that provides advanced technology and manufacturing ...
