5th Period - Extending Moore's Law
Monday November 18, 2024 11:57am - 12:47pm CST
EC116
 in 1965 Gordon Moore noticed an exponential trend in semiconductor manufacturing, every year (or so), the number of transistors (~60 at the time) on a chip doubled. He suggested that this might go on for 10 years. Almost 60 years later, there are tens of billions of transistors on a chip, but some indication that the main driver of this self-fulfilling prophesy, the ability of patterning (photolithography) tools to shrink the size of transistors may have come to an end, along with the ability of the mask writing tools (E-Beam Lithography) to make smaller patterns on the masks. This talk will explain how Texas (where semiconductor Integrated Circuits and photolithography were invented in the first place) will extend Moore's Law by at least 20 years. A new patterning tool (NOT photolithography) has been invented in Austin and a new mask writing tool is being developed here in the Dallas area that will write the nanopatterned mask required by this new printing process to make features down to 2nm.
