Abstract
    Moore’s Law has been fundamental in driving the information age explosion in the last 50 years. As the CMOS feature enters the era of extreme scaling (14nm, 11nm and beyond) for “More Moore,” IC manufacturability challenges are exacerbated, with the adoption of double/multiple patterning and other emerging lithography technologies. Meanwhile, the vertical scaling with 3D-IC integration using through-silicon-vias (TSVs) has gained tremendous momentum, which can further extend the conventional Moore’s Law (“More than Moore”) even if the feature size scaling stops ultimately. Furthermore, new material/devices such as nanophotonics are making headways to the ultimate on-chip integration. All these require new VLSI CAD tools and methodologies. This talk will present some recent results to push the envelope using multiple patterning lithography as well as other emerging technologies, such as 3D-IC and optical interconnects. Cross-layer modeling and CAD tool/methodologies will be discussed to achieve future heterogeneous integrated circuits and system integration.
