摘要
Transistors are scaled in each successive technology generation to increase circuit speed and to improve packing density. However, as the devices get smaller, ensuring their reliability becomes increasingly difficult. This paper outlines the technology reliable for the next ten years when it comes to scaling of gate oxides.
