Transistor fabrication has spanned the gamut from planar devices o FinFET to Gate-All-Around (GAA) as silicon dimensions have decreased in the quest for higher density, faster speeds and lower power. Process development engineers use powerful simulation tools to predict and even optimize transistor performance for GAA devices.… Read More
The year 2025 is both a turning point for integrated photonics as a key enabler for AI, physical and infrastructure interconnect, and the International Year of Quantum (IYQ). In our event, we are going to explore the enabling technologies shared by these two exciting fields. While these systems need to exist in a broader
Many of you are already familiar with Silicon Catalyst and the value it brings to semiconductor startups, the industry and the electronics industry at large. Silicon Catalyst is an organization that supports early-stage semiconductor startups with an ecosystem that provides tools and resources needed to design, create, and… Read More
Dan is joined by Scott Best, technical director at Rambus. His research areas are memory architectures, 3D packaging, and security processors. Scott joined Rambus in 1998 and has served in many and varied technical roles. He has become one of the most prolific inventors in the company’s history. Over the course of his career at … Read More
In 1982, Richard Feynman, a theoretical physicist and Nobel Prize winner, proposed the initial quantum computer; Feynman’s quantum computer would have the capacity to facilitate traditional algorithms and quantum circuits with the goal of simulating quantum behavior as it would have occurred in nature. The systems Feynman… Read More
Quantum teleportation is a technique for transferring quantum information from a sender at one location to a receiver some distance away. While teleportation is portrayed in science fiction as a means to transfer physical objects from one location to the next, quantum teleportation only transfers quantum information. [1]… Read More
There’s another domain in Quantum Computing (QC) which periodically attracts headlines – Quantum Key Distribution (QKD). I thought this worth covering because it does not depend on the ability to do parallel computation on superposition states, so may not be as much at the mercy of limited coherence times. And ultimately… Read More
Ever since the announcement in early July from CERN that they likely have, probably, finally found the Higgs boson, I’ve been thinking about what quantum mechanics means to our daily ‘classical model’ existence. On the surface, nothing. The most fantastical aspects of quantum mechanics, like uncertainty, tunneling and the … Read More
