The SiNANO Institute: research areas developing the nanoelectronics landscape

The SiNANO Institute shapes tomorrow’s nanoelectronics landscape.

Future tera scale ICs and Nanosystems will require innovative nanoscale structures that can improve performance and/or enable new functionalities.

That’s why the SINANO Institute research areas cover the full nanoelectronic field, from materials to systems, with possible integration of More Moore, More than Moore, and Beyond-CMOS devices.

The fullest possible value chain for the best of nanoelectronics’ applications // The full, the best, and the vast: enhancing the value chain to support the next generation applications and broaden the nanoelectronics landscape // A value chain broadening the nanoelectronics landscape. A value chain broadening the nanoelectronics landscape.

To target applications such as Internet of Things, automotive/mobility, medical/health, environment, manufacturing, security, energy, farming, our activities focus on:

More Moore

  • logic nanodevices
  • embedded and non-charge-based memories
  • very low power devices
  • high-temperature electronics

Beyond CMOS

  • novel devices for ultra-low power
  • small slope switches-NCFET/TFET/NEMS, 1D
  • alternative materials-2D layers
  • neuromorphic computing
  • new bottom-up processes

More than Moore
