A graphene NEMS switch to protect against electrostatic discharging
(Nanowerk Spotlight) One of the most pervasive reliability problems facing the computer chip industry is ESD (electrostatic discharging) failure caused by the rapid, spontaneous transfer of electrostatic charge induced by a high electrostatic field.Nanowerk: 2018-12-04

Imec first to stack FinFETS with 45nm fin pitch using sequential 3D integration
The top layer consists of junction-less devices fabricated at a temperature below 525 0 C in a silicon layer transferred by wafer-to-wafer bonding. The resulting stack demonstrates how the 3D sequential approach can be deployed to obtain an aggressive ...New Electronics: 2018-12-04

Form-fitting, nanoscale sensors now make sense
(Nanowerk News) What if a sensor sensing a thing could be part of the thing itself? Rice University engineers believe they have a two-dimensional solution to do just that. Rice engineers led by materials scientists Pulickel Ajayan and Jun Lou have ...Nanowerk: 2018-12-06

Gecko-inspired nanofiber ‘carpet’ could lead to superpower coatings
Water-repelling lotus leaves are coated with arrays of microscopic waxy tubules. And the nanoscale hairs on the bottoms of gravity-defying gecko feet get so close to other surfaces that atomic forces of attraction come into play. An electron microscope ...Futurity News: 2018-12-07
