This request is for funds to support an International Mini-Workshop series on An Assessment of Options for a Post-CMOS Information Industry. By 2018 or earlier the Semiconductor Industry will be nearing the end of CMOS scaling and that continued progress in functionality-cost ratios will require the invention of new information processing technologies. A range of new concepts for devices, fabrication techniques, and system architectures are emerging today under the general heading of nanoelectronics that may eventually provide the basis for continuing advances in information technologies that we have experienced for the last three decades. In 2003-2005, the Semiconductor Industry, via the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS), continued a process to access the applicability of a wide range of research devices and device concepts to serve as a basis for continuing historical functionality-cost trends. Further, the scope of this assessment was substantially expanded to identify and evaluate key materials and their research issues required to enable the research devices. In 2004, in collaboration with and partially funded by NSFs NNI program, Industry specialists engaged the academic community and obtained their substantive response to the ITRSs 2003 detailed technical assessment of novel logic and memory devices, as well as emerging novel nano architectures via a set of three workshops. These workshops provided additional insights and details regarding specific content of the ITRSs 2003 report.Intellectual Merit:There is a need for new thinking in materials, device and nano-architecture research. Tostimulate this thinking, we plan to conduct a set of four workshops in 2006 with theoverarching objective to discuss fundamental scientific issues related to informationprocessing beyond the domain of CMOS electronics and to set the stage for preparation ofthe 2007 ITRS chapters on Emerging Research Devices (ERD) and Emerging Research Materials(ERM). Broader impact:These workshops will result in promoting a close interaction between universities and industry and a new ITRS Roadmap for the future. The ITRS Roadmap and the ITRS chapters on Emerging Research devices and Emerging Research materials influence the directions of research in the universities as well as industry.

这项请求是为支持关于评估后CMOS信息产业选择的国际小型讲习班系列提供资金。到2018年或更早的时候，半导体行业将接近CMOS规模的结束，功能成本比的持续进步将需要新的信息处理技术的发明。今天，在纳米电子学的总标题下，一系列关于器件、制造技术和系统架构的新概念正在涌现，这些概念最终可能为我们在过去30年中经历的信息技术的持续进步提供基础。在2003-2005年间，半导体行业通过国际半导体技术路线图(ITRS)，继续研究各种研究设备和设备概念的适用性，作为持续的历史功能-成本趋势的基础。此外，这项评估的范围大大扩大，以确定和评估启用研究装置所需的关键材料及其研究问题。2004年，在与NSFS NNI计划的合作和部分资助下，行业专家与学术界进行了接触，并通过一系列三次研讨会获得了他们对ITRS2003对新型逻辑和存储设备以及新兴的新型纳米体系结构的详细技术评估的实质性回应。这些讲习班就2003年ITRSs报告的具体内容提供了更多的见解和细节。为了促进这一想法，我们计划在2006年举办一系列四个研讨会，总体目标是讨论与CMOS电子学领域以外的信息处理有关的基础科学问题，并为编制2007年ITRS关于新兴研究器件(ERD)和新兴研究材料(ERM)的章节做好准备。更广泛的影响：这些讲习班将促进大学和工业界之间的密切互动，并为未来制定新的信息技术研究路线图。ITRS路线图和ITRS关于新兴研究设备和新兴研究材料的章节影响着大学和行业的研究方向。
