Abstract: The talk will present the COMON (Compact Modeling Network), European FP7 Marie-Curie project. The network addresses development of complete compact models of Multi-Gate MOSFETs, HV MOSFETs and III-V FETs. The main topics are SPICE/compact modelling methodologies, model characterization and implementation techniques, model validation via test circuit design and evaluation, and finally dissemination activities. The model implementation topic is strongly related to recent compact model standardization initiative.
To accomplish these tasks COMON network coordinates joint efforts of groups representing 15 European universities and companies in an attempt to transfer the scientific and technological knowledge from academia to industry (especially by means of researcher exchange program), to provide powerful modelling and CAD methodologies for European integrated circuit design centers, and to integrate European research in fragmented R&D areas for the benefit of both young and experienced researchers. Furthermore, the MOS-AK/GSA community provides a Verilog-A standardization platform for compact modeling as well as the international dissemination support.

Compact Models and TCAD: New Techniques in Parameter Extraction and Inverse Modeling
Shen Chen (Cogenda Pte Ltd.)
Abstract: Some new
technologies that bridge the gap between TCAD simulation and compact modeling
will be discussed. Three topics will be covered in the talk;
1.
Using automatic-differentiation and PDE-constrained optimization for parameter
extraction.
2.
Using PDE-constrained optimization for inverse modeling of MOSFET.
3.
Simulating circuits with >20 transistors with TCAD device simulator.
13:50 Oxide
Defects: From Microscopic Physics to Compact Models
Tibor
Grasser (TU Wien)
Abstract: Oxide defects
are responsible for a wide range of important phenomena in MOS transistors,
starting from random telegraph noise, 1/f noise, and the bias temperature
instability. Their most peculiar feature
is the wide distribution of time constants, which covers the whole
experimentally accessible range from the microseconds regime up to weeks and
even longer. This workshop presentation starts with a review of the fundamental
physics of charge trapping and finishes with preliminary results on how these
processes can be captured in a more compact-modeling-like approach.
14:40-15:00 Coffee Break
15:00 Measurement and Characterization of Millimeter-wave Passive and Active Devices
Kenichi Okada (Tokyo Institute of Technology)
Abstract: This presentation will review high-frequency measurement and characterization of CMOS passive and active devices for designing millimeter-wave circuits.
De-embedding and test structure will be also presented.

Workshop2
“Prospects of Power Electronics and Power Devices”
September 7,
2011
Room Ginga
Hotel Hankyu Expo Park, Osaka, Japan
Organizer: Ichiro Omura, Kyusyu Institute of Technology
Power electronics and power semiconductor devices have been recognized as the key technology for the future reduction in CO2 emission. In the future, power electronics systems will be "ubiquitously" used in variety of application including EV, heat pumps, lightings, grid systems, renewable energy systems, ICTs and motor drives. This workshop introduces major power devices used in power electronics systems, including Power MOSFETs, Power ICs and IGBTs, and their application impacts toward low carbon society. It also covers details of power device development trends, and the state-of-the-art performances reported in recent papers.
