Preface

The ongoing miniaturization of devices like transistors used in integrated circuits (ICs) has led to feature sizes on the nanoscale. The Intel Core 2 (Yorkfield), first presented in 2007, was produced using 45 nm technology. Recently, production has reached 14 nm processes, e.g., in the Intel Broadwell, Skylake, and Kaby Lake microprocessors. Although the main principles in IC design and production are those of microelectronics, nowadays, one therefore speaks of nanoelectronics. With miniaturization now reaching double-digit nanometer length scales and the huge number of semiconductor devices employed, which result in a correspondingly significant rise in integration density, the influence of the wiring and supply networks (interconnect and power grids) on the physical behavi
