This works demonstrates a novel approach using Si implantation prior to Pt deposition and PtSi formation to control the underlap length between the PtSi source/drain regions to the gate in Schottky-Barrier (SB-)^sMOSFETs. Dopant segregation at the PtSi/Si interface is used to enhance device performance. With the I{sub}(on)/I{sub}(off) current ratio as an indicator, optimized Si implant doses are found for both n- and p-channel SB-MOSFETs. Through an effective barrier width, the underlap length has direct implication on the leakage current.

This paper proposes a new partition algorithm. The variable weight of the nets is introduced into the algorithm. Generally, the nodes connected to the nets are more than two in the hypergraph, so the probability gain model is used to enforce the effect of the increased weight of the nets. This algorithm can jump out of local minimal effectively when compared with original algorithm. The improvement is especially obvious for the large-scale circuits. For the gain value of the cell is floating-point, balanced binary tree is used to store the gain value of the cells, so the speed of this algorithm is several times slower than FM algorithm. The time complexity of this algorithm is O(P log2(n)) (where P is the sum of the pins of all logic cells of the circuit, and n is the number of the circuit logic cells).

A SoC design for applications of OMA DRM 2 Agent in mobile phones is presented in this paper, which has been verified by Altera Stratix EP1S80B956C6 FPGA development board. Several design aspects, which include an embedded 32-bits RISC CPU and AMBA™ bus system, a DRM Agent accelerator, a high-performance TRNG, several interfaces and reasonable hardware/software partition, making it very efficient for the OMA DRM 2 application. Based on SMIC 0.25μm standard CMOS technology, the proposed SoC platform can work under the frequency of about 76MHz, and the core circuit is 112k gates, making it suitable for low-cost design. Besides, memory protection unit is added to enhance the security. Therefore, the proposed SoC platform has a fine potential in application.

A new 8PBF structure for 64/128 flexible point FFT processor is proposed. The processor, which is based on 8*8*2 mixed radix algorithm, can deal with multiple inputs more efficiently for MIMO applications. The 8PFB structure efficiently brings the throughput of the processor up to 1GS/s and the chances of register reverse down, reducing the power dissipation remarkably. Meanwhile the modified shift-add algorithm can remove complex multipliers in the FFT processor.

This paper presents the design of a Viterbi decoder for the multiband OFDM (MB-OFDM) ultra-wideband (UWB) communication systems. To achieve the highest data rate desired with hardware efficiency, a folded sliding block architecture is utilized. For lower data rates, some of the processing elements (PE) in the Viterbi decoder are disabled to save power. The design has been implemented on FPGA and the throughput can be up to 432 Mbps on a Xilinx Virtex-4 device.

Electrical properties and phase structures of (Si+N)-codoped Oe2Sb2Te5 (GST) for phase change memory are investigated to improve the memory performance. Compared to the films with N or Si dopants only in previous reports, the (Si+N)-doped GST has a remarkable improvement of crystalline resistivity of about 104mΩcm. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy spectrum reveals the Si-N bonds formation in the film. X-ray diffraction patterns show that the grain size is reduced due to the crystallization inhibition of the amorphous GST by SiNx, which results in higher crystalline resistivity. This is very useful to reduce writing current for phase change memory applications.

This paper presents a high performance AC-DC charge pump for RFID tags, with the self-bias feedback and threshold compensation technique. Compared with conventional charge pump, the influence of threshold is greatly reduced and output DC voltage and power conversion efficiency is greatly improved. This proposed charge pump with 5 stages is implemented in SMIC 0.18 mum standard CMOS process. Simulation and measurement results show that for sinusoidal wave ( f = 3.56 MHz) with magnitude voltages of 0.5 V, 0.6 V, and 0.7 V the output DC voltages of 1.1 V, 1.5 V and 1.9 V can be generated respectively with 120 KOmega equivalent load. Measurement results show the power conversion efficiency (PCE) reaches as high as 36%. And the sensitivity performance of RFID tags is improved to as low as -14.5 dBm.
