{"product_id":"9781119966869","title":"Advanced Interconnects for ULSI Technology","description":"Finding new materials for copper\/low-k interconnects is critical to the continuing development of computer chips. While copper\/low-k interconnects have served well, allowing for the creation of Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI) devices which combine over a billion transistors onto a single chip, the increased resistance and RC-delay at the smaller scale has become a significant factor affecting chip performance. \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAdvanced Interconnects for ULSI Technology\u003c\/i\u003e is dedicated to the materials and methods which might be suitable replacements. It covers a broad range of topics, from physical principles to design, fabrication, characterization, and application of new materials for nano-interconnects, and discusses:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eInterconnect functions, characterisations, electrical properties and wiring requirements\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLow-k materials: fundamentals, advances and mechanical  properties\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConductive layers and barriers\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegration and reliability including mechanical reliability, electromigration and electrical breakdown\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNew approaches including 3D, optical, wireless interchip, and carbon-based interconnects\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntended for postgraduate students and researchers, in academia and industry, this book provides a critical overview of the enabling technology at the heart of the future development of computer chips.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47136495141104,"sku":"9781119966869","price":219.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781119966869_p0.jpg?v=1763697457","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781119966869","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
