VLSI Technologies

 

As I've mentioned somewhere else on the site, I've started my IC career since 2013 or so, but my first intention was not the design, but the researches of post-Moore IC technologies, for this purpose I have some years exploring many dozens of new generations of IC technologies, among them also quantum circuits, greaphene chips, spintronics based circuits, single electron tunneling, DNA computing etc.

But I have found no place to avail my efforts, and I can see no breakthrough over the foreseeable time - the IC technology has been stopped since 2010 when Intel has first produced its 1.6GHz CPU and since then we have seen the CPU speed is not progressed much -, and for another 10 years there will be no commecial, alternative IC technology that can replace the current silicon and electron based IC technology, therefore I have turned to design as my key expertise field. Why I come to satellite Internet modem IC design is another story which I will tell you later on.

And now, IC technology is still important, therefore I still need to follow up its development. Unfortunately I can't find uptodate books in this field from the Internet. No new books are appearing in this filed over the last years. Many of them were published more than 10 years ago.
