NANOSCALE INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES AND SYSTEMS
Since the first transistor was invented by
John Bardeen in 1947 and the first integrated
circuit was invented by Jack Kilby in 1958,
semiconductor continues to grow as the backbone
industry in the global IT economy Did
you know ? The worldwide semiconductor
industry collected 261.9 billion in revenue in
2008

• DEVICE CHARACTERIZATION AND MODELING
• Accurate on-wafer characterization and modeling
  of semiconductor devices are crucial to guarantee
  first-pass integrated circuit (IC) design, and
  hence reduce the product development cycle.
• HSIC researches focus on developing large-signal
  as well as noise model for many different
  semiconductor devices such as HBTs, MESFETs and
  MOSFETs.
• INTEGRATED CIRCUITS

• The Micro and Nanotechnology Laboratory (MNTL) of
  the University
• of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is a
  multidisciplinary research
• facility that houses advanced equipments to
  support cutting-edge
• researches in photonics, microelectronics,
  nanotechnology,
• and biotechnology.
• As a research unit of the MNTL, the High Speed
  Integrated Circuits
• (HSIC) mission is to explore the solutions to
  create innovative semiconductor devices and
  monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs)
  for communication systems working across the
  spectrum of 1 GHz to 1 THz.
• The research programs in HSIC continue to expand
  thanks to major awards from our government
  sponsor, DARPA, along with our industry and
  research partners
• SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES
