New multi-gate transistor structures such as the FinFET and Trigate FET provide opportunities to reduce channel lengths that are controlled largely by the thin body of the fin instead of by channel doping [8,9]. Reduced susceptibility to random channel-doping fluctuations, improved drain-induced-barrier lowering, smaller sub-threshold swing, and improved channel carrier mobility due to smaller vertical electric fields, are advantages offered by the FinFET and
Trigate FET structures. However, increased transistor-parameter variability or, tolerances are an issue of growing impor
The materials and device-structure innovations discussed in the three preceding paragraphs, although not explicitly considered in the original scaling theory of MOSFETs, provide significant opportunities to continue to s

Adaptive Circuits for the 0.5-V Nanoscale CMOS Era Kiyoo Itoh
Fellow, Hitachi, Tokyo, Japan, 1. Introduction
Low-voltage scaling limitations of memory-rich CMOS LSIs are one of the major problems in the nanoscale era [1-3] because they cause the evermore-serious power crises with device scaling. The problems stem from two unsca

Not to put too fine a spin on things, but did it ever occur to you when your meal was getting cold while you were waiting for the server to notice that your wine glass needed filling, that this was a problem that you could address through circuit design, and practically and realistically do so within the next year or so? I thought not! So what else are we missing?
