Semiconductor Device Improvement Using Atomera MST Technologies and MSTcad Toolset.

March 3, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am PST

Synopsys, March 3, 2022

Join our webinar to learn about how Atomera’s MSTcad™ toolset can be used to model and optimize transistor performance when integrating Atomera’s Mears Silicon Technology™ (MST) into a semiconductor process.  Topics covered include how MST® enhances most transistor characteristics, and how the MSTcad toolset provides sophisticated modeling capabilities for analyzing MST’s dopant blocking capabilities, how users can create sophisticated highly-engineered dopant profiles using MST, and others.  Also learn how the MSTcad toolset is tightly integrated with Synopsys’s Sentaurus™ platform and how physical and electrical characteristics are modeled in the Sentaurus Process and Sentaurus Device packages, respectively.

This event presents an overview of how Atomera’s MST can be used for improving transistor device performance, and how MSTcad enables designers to rapidly integrate and optimize this technology in their manufacturing flows.

  • First, provide an overview of MST, including how it provides dopant blocking, enables the creation of highly-engineered dopant profiles, how it improves mobility, and how it can be used to improve device reliability.
  • Then, we describe the physics behind MST and how these effects must be correctly modeled in any TCAD solution.
  • Finally, conclude by providing an overview of the MSTcad toolset, including its integration into Sentaurus, how Atomera has correlated its models with silicon results, how TCAD engineers would use the toolset to optimize their dopant profiles to enhance device performance, and conclude by demonstrating an actual example of how the toolset enabled development of a world-class 5V BCD power switch.
