Early praise for Fully Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator
"It is an excellent written guide for everyone who would like to study SOI deeply, specially focusing on FD-SOI." - Dr. Katsu Izumi, Formerly at NTT Laboratories and then at Osaka Prefecture University, Japan
"FDSOI technology is poised to catch an increasingly large portion of the semiconductor market. This book fits perfectly in this new paradigm [...] It covers many SOI topics which have never been described in a book before." - Professor Jean-Pierre Colinge, Formerly at TSMC and then at CEA-LETI, Grenoble, France
"This book, written by one of the true experts and pioneers in the silicon-on-insulator field, is extremely timely because of the growing footprint of FD-SOI in modern silicon technology, especially in IoT applications. Written in a delightfully informal style yet comprehensive in its coverage, the book describes both the device physics underpinning FD-SOI technology and the cutting-edge, perhaps even futuristic devices enabled by it." - Professor Alexander Zaslavsky, Brown University, USA
"A superbly written book on SOI technology by a master in the field." - Professor Yuan Taur, University of California, San Diego, USA
"The author is a world-top researcher of SOI device/process technology. This book is his masterpiece and important for the FD-SOI archive. The reader will learn much from the book." - Professor Hiroshi Iwai, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Taiwan
From the author
"It is during our global war against the terrifying coalition of corona and insidious computer viruses that this book has been put together. Continuous enlightenment from FD-SOI helped me cross this black and gray period. I shared a lot of myself in this book. The rule of the game was to keep the text light despite the heavy technical content. There are even tentative FD-SOI hieroglyphs on the front cover, composed of curves discussed in the book."
