The SPICE program allows engineers to simulate both individual devices and electronic circuits, performing a large number of different analyses needed for tasks such as verification of circuit designs and prediction of circuit performance. However, the results of a SPICE simulation are only as good as the device models and parameters used. Combining semiconductor device physics and modeling - two subjects traditionally dealt with separately - this book seeks to provide a link in the process.

The steady downscaling of device-feature size combined with a rapid increase in circuit complexity as well as the introduction of new device concepts based on non-silicon-material systems poses great challenges for device and circuit designers. One of the major tasks is the development of new and improved device models needed for accurate device and circuit design. Another task is the development of new circuit-simulation tools to handle very large and complex circuits. This book addresses both these issues with up-to-date reviews written by leading experts in the field.
The first three...

Surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices are recognized for their versatility and efficiency in controlling and processing electrical signals. This has resulted in a multitude of device concepts for a wide range of signal processing functions, such as delay lines, filters, resonators, pulse compressors, convolvers, and many more. As SAW technology has found its way into mass market products such as TV receivers, pagers, keyless entry systems and cellular phones, the production volume has risen to millions of devices produced every day. At the other end of the scale, there are specialized high...

CMOS technology has now reached a state of evolution, in terms of both frequency and noise, where it is becoming a serious contender for radio frequency (RF) applications in the GHz range. Cutoff frequencies of about 50 GHz have been reported for 0.18 m CMOS technology, and are expected to reach about 100 GHz when the feature size shrinks to 100 nm within a few years. This translates into CMOS circuit operating frequencies well into the GHz range, which covers the frequency range of many of today's popular wireless products, such as cell phones, GPS (Global Positioning System) and...

This book consists of four chapters to address at different modeling levels for different nanoscale MOS structures (Single- and Multi-Gate MOSFETs). The collection of these chapters in the book are attempted to provide a comprehensive coverage on the different levels of electrostatics and transport modeling for these devices, and relationships between them. In particular, the issue of quantum transport approaches, analytical predictive 2D/3D modeling and design-oriented compact modeling. It should be of interests to researchers working on modeling at any level, to provide them with a clear...
