Seminario del Departamento de Física de la Materia Condensada: “Frontiers in integrated circuit manufacturing: ultimate energy consumption and quantum computing”.- Jueves 3 de abril
El jueves 3 de abril de 2025 se celebrará una nueva sesión del ciclo de Seminarios del Departamento de Física de la Materia Condensada de la Universidad de Zaragoza, que en esta sesión contará con Francesc Pérez-Murano (Instituto de Microelectrónica de Barcelona, Centro Nacional de Microelectrónica (IMB-CNM), CSIC), que ofrecerá la conferencia titulada “Frontiers in integrated circuit manufacturing: ultimate energy consumption and quantum computing”.
La sesión tendrá lugar a las 12:30 horas en la Sala de Grados de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Universidad de Zaragoza.
Resumen de la conferencia (en inglés):
The dimensions of semiconductor integrated circuit devices continue to shrink, as dictated by Moore's law, to offer better performance and lower power consumption. Soon, the most advanced technologies, fueled by the enormous data processing needs of artificial intelligence, will enter the sub-nanometer nodes, which implies great difficulties in manufacturing. On the other hand, these technologies can be used to exploit quantum phenomena and thus contribute to the development of practical quantum technology. In this presentation, I will show how new nanofabrication methods are being studied for their introduction in IC fabrication, based on bottom-up concepts such as directed self-assembly and single dopant incorporation, which, in turn enable the realization of single electron devices.
Resumen de su currículo (en inglés):
Francesc Pérez-Murano is CSIC research professor at the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona. His research activity has been centered in the development novel nanofabrication methods for nanoelectronics and nanomechanical devices, in particular nanolithography. Presently, he is participating in several international initiatives to advance in the manufacturing of semiconductor quantum devices.
