International Mini-workshop series on An Assessment of Options for Post-CMOS Emerging Research Devices and Related Materials to be held April - Nov. 2010

摘要提案编号：1034585首席研究员：Victor Zhirnov标题：后cmos新兴器件和相关材料的选择评估国际小型研讨会系列本提案的目的是为大约20名教员参加后cmos新兴器件和相关材料的选择评估国际小型研讨会系列申请旅行资金。这将在2010年举行。讲习班将于2010年4月在意大利布拉萨、2010年7月在加州旧金山和2010年9月在西班牙塞维利亚举行。这些会议与国际会议相邻举行，以便其他具有新兴研究设备（ERD）和新兴研究材料（ERM）背景的与会者可以参加会议。应邀参加这些会议的大学教员为四个小型讲习班提供了宝贵的投入。这一系列小型研讨会是2004年、2006年和2008年举办的一系列研讨会的延续。这些小型研讨会提供了高度互动的论坛，半导体行业和相关学术团体的关键研究领导者寻求评估纳米电子学研究的现状，讨论潜在的应用，并确定有希望的未来研究方向。这将使2011年版的国际半导体技术路线图（ITRS）在新的定量分析和预测的基础上，反映出与后cmos器件的信息处理技术相关的关键科学和技术挑战的信息。更广泛的影响：这些研讨会对国际研究界的教育价值和规划影响是相当可观的。几所大学（如斯坦福大学、明尼苏达大学、东京大学）使用ITRS关于新兴研究设备和新兴研究材料的章节作为其纳米电子学课程的文本。此外，一些国际研究资助机构（如SRC、NSF和NIST纳米电子学研究计划，欧盟框架计划8）使用这些章节中的材料作为他们在纳米电子学研究计划中决定研究方向的输入。

AbstractProposal Number: 1034585 Principal Investigator: Victor Zhirnov Title: International Mini-Woorkshop series on An Assessment of Options for Post-CMOS Emerging devices and Related materials The objective of this proposal is to request funds for travel of about 20 faculty members to the International Mini-Workshop series on An Assessment of Options for Post-CMOS Emerging devices and Related materials. that will be held in 2010. The workshops will be held in Braza, Italy-April 2010, San Francisco, CA July 2010, and Seville, Spain September 2010. These meetings are held adjacent to international conference so that other attendees with the background in Emerging Research Devices (ERD) and Emerging Research Materials (ERM) can participate in the meetings. The University faculty invited to attend these meetings contribute valuable input to the four mini-workshops. This set of mini-workshops is in continuation of the series of workshops that have been held in 2004, 2006 and 2008 Intellectual merit: These mini-workshops provide highly interactive forums where key research leaders in the Semiconductor Industry and the related academic communities seek to evaluate the status of nanoelectronics research, discuss potential applications, and define promising future research directions. This will enable the 2011 version of the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) to reflect an informed view on key scientific and technical challenges related to post-CMOS information processing technologies proposed for post-CMOS devices, based on new quantitative analyses and projections. Broader Impact: The educational value and planning impact of these workshops on the international research community are quite substantial. Several universities (e.g., Stanford, U. Minnesota, U. Tokyo, ) use the ITRS chapters on Emerging Research Devices and Emerging Research Materials resulting from these workshops as texts in their Nanoelectronics courses. Also several international research funding agencies (e.g., the SRC, NSF, and NIST Nanoelectronics Research Initiative, the EU Framework Program 8, ) use the material in these chapters as inputs to their decisions on research directions in their Nanoelectronics research programs.
