Lessons From Nanoelectronics
09 Dec 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Supriyo Datta
This talk is about a less-appreciated by-product of the microelectronics revolution, namely the deeper understanding of current flow, energy exchange and device operation that it has enabled, which forms the basis for what we call the bottom-up approach.

A Tutorial Introduction to Negative-Capacitor Landau Transistors: Perspectives on the Road Ahead
03 Dec 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Muhammad A. Alam
In this talk, I use a simple graphical approach to demystify the device and explain why the experimental results are easy to misinterpret. Since the NC-FET is just a special case of a much broader class of phase-change devices and systems (e.g., transistors, memories, MEMS, logic-in-memory...
