A 10nm platform technology for low power and high performance application featuring FINFET devices with multi workfunction gate stack on bulk and SOI

TLDR
A 10nm logic platform technology is presented for low power and high performance application with the tightest contacted poly pitch (CPP) of 64nm and metallization pitch of 48nm ever reported in the FinFET technology on both bulk and SOI substrate.
Abstract
A 10nm logic platform technology is presented for low power and high performance application with the tightest contacted poly pitch (CPP) of 64nm and metallization pitch of 48nm ever reported in the FinFET technology on both bulk and SOI substrate. A 0.053um 2 SRAM bit-cell is reported with a corresponding Static Noise Margin (SNM) of 140mV at 0.75V. Intensive multi-patterning technology and various self-aligned processes have been developed with 193i lithography to overcome optical patterning limit. Multi-workfunction (WF) gate stack has been enabled to provide Vt tunability without the variability degradation induced by channel dopants.

Carbon nanotube transistors scaled to a 40-nanometer footprint

TL;DR: A p-channel transistor scaled to such an extremely small dimension is reported on, built on one semiconducting carbon nanotube, which occupies less than half the space of leading silicon technologies, while delivering a significantly higher pitch-normalized current density.

Challenges and Limitations of CMOS Scaling for FinFET and Beyond Architectures

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the scaling trends of FinFET architecture, with focus on Front-End-of-Line (FEOL) and Middle-of Line (MOL) device parameters, and concluded that the combined requirements of device electrostatics together with the demands on contact resistance presents a Contacted-Gate-Pitch (CGP) scaling limit for horizontal-transport FETs.
