Project Deliverables

• A Design of Experiment (DOE) of the PN junction diode fabrication and characterisation implemented in TMA WorkBench (TWB).
• Cross-sectional views and doping profiles of various processing conditions of the diode.
• Current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the diode under various processing/operating conditions.
• Graphical plots of the target-variable relations from the simulated numerical data.
• A systematic approach to diode model parameter extraction and prediction from TCAD data.
• A summary on the generalization of the Virtual Wafer Fab (VWF) technology to ULSI technology development and circuit design.
• A proposal ("business plan" or commercial exploitation) for the application of the VWF technology and its economical/technological impact.
