Fully Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator provides an in-depth presentation of the fundamental and pragmatic concepts of this increasingly important technology. There are two main technologies in the marketplace of advanced CMOS circuits: FinFETs and fully depleted silicon-on-insulators (FD-SOI). The latter is unchallenged in the field of low-power, high-frequency, and Internet-of-Things (IOT) circuits. The topic is very timely at research and development levels. Compared to existing books on SOI materials and devices, this book covers exhaustively the FD-SOI domain. Fully Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator is based on the expertise of one of the most eminent individuals in the community, Dr. Sorin Cristoloveanu, an IEEE Andrew Grove 2017 award recipient "e;For contributions to silicon-on-insulator technology and thin body devices."e; In the book, he shares key insights on the technological aspects, operation mechanisms, characterization techniques, and most promising emerging applications. Early praise for Fully Depleted Silicon-On-Insulator "e;It is an excellent written guide for everyone who would like to study SOI deeply, specially focusing on FD-SOI."e; --Dr. Katsu Izumi, Formerly at NTT Laboratories and then at Osaka Prefecture University, Japan "e;FDSOI technology is poised to catch an increasingly large portion of the semiconductor market. This book fits perfectly in this new paradigm [...] It covers many SOI topics which have never been described in a book before."e; --Professor Jean-Pierre Colinge, Formerly at TSMC and then at CEA-LETI, Grenoble, France "e;This book, written by one of the true experts and pioneers in the silicon-on-insulator field, is extremely timely because of the growing footprint of FD-SOI in modern silicon technology, especially in IoT applications. Written in a delightfully informal style yet comprehensive in its coverage, the book describes both the device physics underpinning FD-SOI technology and the cutting-edge, perhaps even futuristic devices enabled by it."e; --Professor Alexander Zaslavsky, Brown University, USA "e;A superbly written book on SOI technology by a master in the field."e; --Professor Yuan Taur, University of California, San Diego, USA "e;The author is a world-top researcher of SOI device/process technology. This book is his masterpiece and important for the FD-SOI archive. The reader will learn much from the book."e; --Professor Hiroshi Iwai, National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, Taiwan From the author "e;It is during our global war against the terrifying coalition of corona and insidious computer viruses that this book has been put together. Continuous enlightenment from FD-SOI helped me cross this black and gray period. I shared a lot of myself in this book. The rule of the game was to keep the text light despite the heavy technical content. There are even tentative FD-SOI hieroglyphs on the front cover, composed of curves discussed in the book."e; Written by a top expert in the silicon-on-insulator community and IEEE Andrew Grove 2017 award recipient Comprehensively addresses the technology aspects, operation mechanisms and electrical characterization techniques for FD-SOI devices Discusses FD-SOI's most promising device structures for memory, sensing and emerging applications
