Under the sponsorship of the Electron Devices Society of the IEEE, an international conference on the numerical modeling of semiconductor devices, processes and equipment for integrated circuits will be held in Monterey, California, USA from September 6-8, 2006.

This meeting provides an opportunity for the presentation and discussion of recent advances in modeling and simulation of semiconductor devices, processes and equipment for increased understanding and for applications to both design and manufacturing. The program consists of 20-minute presentations, with ample time for questions and answers. A poster session is also planned, which provides for a less formal venue and allows for more in-depth interactions with the authors. The presentations will be selected from two-page abstracts of topics which may include:

  • All aspects of device simulation, including transport in nano-structures and structures using non-conventional materials, effects of strain on carrier transport, models of device scaling limits, quantum effects, reliability, fluctuations, and novel nano-scale devices such as QCA, SET, and molecular devices.
  • All aspects of process simulation, including both continuum and atomistic approaches, models for dopant activation and diffusion, oxidation, silicide growth, interface effects, and effects due to stress.
  • Equipment, topography, and lithography simulation.
  • Interconnect modeling and algorithms including noise and parasitic effects.
  • Compact device modeling for circuit simulation, including high frequency and noise modeling.
  • Integration of circuit, device, process simulation with applications to performance modeling of circuits.
  • User interfaces and visualization.
  • High performance computing, advanced numerical methods and algorithms, including gridding.
  • Simulations of new memory structures such as nanocrystal, phase change, MRAM, and devices such as microsensors, microactuators, optoelectronics devices, lasers, and flat panel displays.
  • Benchmarking, calibration, and verification of models and simulators.

 

Deadline for submission of abstracts -- Feb. 24, 2006

Two-page abstracts must be submitted by email to sispad06@gloworm.stanford.edu (PDF format only) and should include:
1.  Title of Paper
2.  Name, complete mailing address, and email of first author
3.  Names and affiliations of additional authors

Authors will be notified of the Technical Program Committee's decision by April 28, 2006.
