ESREF 2025 Tutorial
Reliability aspects of novel device architectures
Erik Bury, IMEC, Belgium
This talk will address front-end reliability considerations and the associated challenges arising from the transition to Gate-All-Around (GAA) MOSFET architectures in advanced logic technologies. We will also explore emerging device architectures—such as Forksheet FETs—that enable continued logic cell scaling. The tutorial will further delve into the unique integration challenges introduced by these novel structures and assess their implications on both time-zero and time-dependent device performance
