Calibration is an essential part of enabling TCAD products usages inside Semiconductor fab. Synopsys has been leading the development
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
In Silvaco’s June 2025 Tech Talk, “The Diffusion of Innovation: Investing in the Ecosystem Expansion,” Chief Revenue Officer Ian Chen outlined how strategic partnerships accelerate R&D in semiconductor design and digital twin modeling. As a leading provider of TCAD, EDA software, and SIP solutions,… Read More

Semiconductor fabs aim to have high yields and provide processes that attract design firms and win new design starts, but how does a fab deliver their process nodes in a timely manner without having to run lots of expensive silicon through the line? This is where simulation and TCAD tools come into play, and to learn more about this… Read More
Now that the dust has settled, I will give you my take on the Intel Foundry event. Some might call me a semiconductor event critic as I have attended hundreds of them over the last 40 years starting with the Design Automation Conference in 1984. Foundry events are my favorite because they really are the pulse of the semiconductor industry,… Read More
The International Conference on Simulation of Semiconductor Processes and Devices (SISPAD) provides an international forum for the presentation of leading-edge research and development results in the area of process and device simulation. SISPAD is one of the longest-running conferences devoted to technology computer-aided… Read More
Readers of SemiWiki will be well aware of the challenges the industry has faced in photolithography in moving to new nodes, which drove the development of new EUV light sources as well as new masking techniques. Plasma etching is another key step in chip manufacturing that has also seen new challenges in the development of new sub-10nm… Read More
