1. Ge/high-k Gates for Monolithic 3D Integration
Abstract : Continuous scaling of transistor dimensions has been in the heart of semiconductorindustry for many years. Recently the scaling has been enabled by various performance boosters which resulted in increased processing complexity and cost, forcing the chip manufacturers to look for some alternative solutions.

2. Germanium layer transfer and device fabrication for monolithic 3D integration
Abstract : Monolithic three-dimensional (M3D) integration, it has been proposed,can overcome the limitations of further circuits’ performance improvementand functionality expansion. The emergence of the internet of things (IoT) isdriving the semiconductor industry toward the fabrication of higher-performancecircuits with diverse functionality. READ MORE

4. Applications of Si1-xGex alloys for Ge devices and monolithic 3D integration
Abstract : As the semiconductor industry moves beyond the 10 nm node, power consumption constraints and reduction of the negative impact of parasitic elements become important. Silicon germanium (Si1−xGex) alloys have been used to amplify the performance of Si based devices and integrated circuits (ICs) for decades. READ MORE

5. Monolithic Integrated Oscillators - Phase Noise Analysis and Inductor Modeling
Abstract : This doctoral dissertation studies voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) that operate at low supply voltages. Due to smaller transistor sizes and lower supply voltage ratings with every new CMOS technology, voltage headroom is diminishing. READ MORE
