Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The domain of semiconductors is experiencing a paradigm shift as the boundaries of Moore’s Law are being approached. While the exploration of next-generation semiconductors, such as 2D materials and wide bandgap semiconductors, continues to reveal new horizons for electronic devices, advancements in traditional semiconductors such as silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge) remain crucial for current and emerging technologies. These advancements, in conjunction with sophisticated modeling, simulation, and fabrication techniques, are paving the way for remarkable innovations, not only in materials and devices, but also in circuits and systems, thus enriching the landscape of semiconductor research.
This Special Issue, titled “Latest Advancements in Semiconductor Materials, Devices, and Systems, 2nd Edition”, aims to create a comprehensive platform for researchers to share their state-of-the-art results. We welcome contributions in the form of research papers, communications, and review articles that shed light on contemporary developments in both traditional and next-generation semiconductors and their integration into innovative devices, circuits, and systems.
We cordially invite submissions on a wide array of topics, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Novel device structures, processes, and models;
- Material synthesis, characterizations, and heterojunctions involving Si, Ge, GaAs, layered transition metal chalcogenides, graphene, black phosphorus, III-V, SiC, ZnO, Ga2O3, diamond, and others;
- Numerical studies and simulations exploring the behavior and application of both traditional and advanced semiconductors;
- Innovative circuit designs and system-level integrations;
- Machine learning applications in optimizing semiconductor functionalities;
- Advanced computing paradigms (neural computing, in-memory computing, and quantum computing) enabled by modern semiconductor technologies.
This Special Issue will serve as an exciting springboard for disseminating pioneering work and fostering discussions that will guide future directions of study in the field of semiconductors. We eagerly anticipate your valuable submissions and look forward to an enlightening discourse on the latest advancements encompassing semiconductor materials, devices, circuits, and systems.
