What’s changing at the leading edge of Moore’s Law and why those changes are so important.

Progress and future problems with advanced processes—and where the solutions will come from.

Double patterning, finFETs, design rules at advanced nodes are driving design for manufacturing into the stratosphere.

It’s been talked about for years. Why is this issue suddenly so pressing?

One-on-one with GlobalFoundries EVP Mike Noonen.

It’s the end of the line for planar transistors. Now what?

The impact of multi patterning, new design rules and silicon photonics on semiconductor manufacturing in the future.

Semiconductor Manufacturing & Design talks with Luigi Capodieci, fellow at GlobalFoundries, about EUV, the challenges at 20nm and beyond, and the future of the foundry model.

A candid conversation with Randhir Thakur, general manager of Applied Materials’ Silicon Systems Group, about what’s changing in the foundries and the equipment needed to create ICs.

The advent of an extra dimension in design could require some significant changes in materials and manufacturing.
