商品描述
This book provides a methodological understanding of the theoretical and technical limitations to the longevity of Moore's law. The book presents research on factors that have significant impact on the future of Moore's law and those factors believed to sustain the trend of the last five decades. Research findings show that boundaries of Moore's law primarily include physical restrictions of scaling electronic components to levels beyond that of ordinary manufacturing principles and approaching the bounds of physics. The research presented in this book provides essential background and knowledge to grasp the following principles:
- Traditional and modern photolithography, the primary limiting factor of Moore's law
- Innovations in semiconductor manufacturing that makes current generation CMOS processing possible
- Multi-disciplinary technologies that could drive Moore's law forward significantly
- Design principles for microelectronic circuits and components that take advantage of technology miniaturization
- The semiconductor industry economic market trends and technical driving factors
The complexity and cost associated with technology scaling have compelled researchers in the disciplines of engineering and physics to optimize previous generation nodes to improve system-on-chip performance. This is especially relevant to participate in the increased attractiveness of the Internet of Things (IoT). This book additionally provides scholarly and practical examples of principles in microelectronic circuit design and layout to mitigate technology limits of previous generation nodes. Readers are encouraged to intellectually apply the knowledge derived from this book to further research and innovation in prolonging Moore's law and associated principles.

本書提供了對摩爾定律壽命的理論和技術限制的方法論理解。該書介紹了對摩爾定律未來具有重大影響的因素，以及那些被認為能維持過去五十年趨勢的因素。研究結果表明，摩爾定律的界限主要包括將電子元件的物理限制提升到超出普通製造原則並接近物理界限的限制。本書中提出的研究提供了理解以下原則所需的基本背景和知識：
- 傳統和現代光刻技術，是摩爾定律的主要限制因素
- 半導體製造中的創新，使得當前世代的CMOS處理成為可能
- 可以顯著推動摩爾定律的多學科技術
- 利用技術微型化的微電子電路和元件設計原則
- 半導體行業經濟市場趨勢和技術驅動因素
技術尺度的複雜性和成本迫使工程和物理學研究人員優化先前世代節點，以提高系統芯片的性能。這對於參與物聯網的增加吸引力尤為重要。本書還提供了在微電子電路設計和佈局中應對先前世代節點技術限制的學術和實用示例。鼓勵讀者從本書中獲得的知識在延長摩爾定律和相關原則的研究和創新中進行智力應用。
