Preface
Since the first transistor was invented at Bell Laboratories in 1947, semiconductors rapidly evolved into a key enabler for providing solutions to societal, business, and consumer needs. Today, the semiconductor market has become the cornerstone of global high-tech economy, with more than 16% of the world economy built on semiconductors and with annual R&D budgets in the industry ranging up to 20% of revenue. At the same time, semiconductors have become the cornerstone of modern society, and pervaded and penetrated in numerous aspects of human lives. Explosive technology development driven by Moore’s law has been playing a vital role for the success of the semiconductor industry. In 2005, the strategic research agenda and vision for “More than Moore” (MtM) technology were formulated in a systematic manner by the European Technology Platform for Nanoelectronics ENIAC. Since then, we have witnessed the quick development of a new area of micro/nanoelectronics beyond the boundaries of Moore’s law and into the area of “MtM,” which creates and adds more nondigital functionality to conventional semiconductor technology, leading to virtually unlimited technology possibilities and application potentials for the semiconductor-based high-tech industry. Based on the extensive results from the “MtM” technology domain team within ENIAC and the MEDEA+ working group (“Towards and beyond 2015”), this unique book presents the new semiconductor landscape by highlighting current and future semiconductor applications to meet various society needs, providin
