The reasons why I finally come to IC research is that, of all technologies now available in the world, IC technologies are playing the single most important role in human development now, and for the foreseeable days. Without it, we will return back to the mechnical times. |
VLSI is the most important technology of the world today and tomorrow, and this is the reason I have chosen it as my research focus in retation with math, particularly graph theory. |
|
Nowadays CMOS based VLSI technology has reached its limits, therefore I will no more follow the silicon based IC technology, but the upcoming new promising computation circuits with radically new physics and chemistry and even biological fundamentals. But at the moment there is no sight of breakthrough. Just follow me to find out where this great leap will come true. |
|
Before VLSI was my final science focus, there were several other science branches where I have spent a decade on studying, incl. fluid dynamics, solar science and thermodynamics. |

As I've mentioned somewhere else on the site, I've started my IC career since 2013 or so, but my first intention was not the design, but the researches of post-Moore IC technologies, for this purpose I have some years exploring many dozens of new generations of IC technologies, among them also quantum circuits, greaphene chips, spintronics based circuits, single electron tunneling, DNA computing etc. But I have found no place to avail my efforts, and I can see no breakthrough over the foreseeable time - the IC technology has been stopped since 2010 when Intel has first produced its 1.6GHz CPU and since then we have seen the CPU speed is not progressed much -, and for another 10 years there will be no commecial, alternative IC technology that can replace the current silicon and electron based IC technology, therefore I have turned to design as my key expertise field. Why I come to satellite Internet modem IC design is another story which I will tell you later on. And now, IC technology is still important, therefore I still need to follow up its development. Unfortunately I can't find uptodate books in this field from the Internet. No new books are appearing in this filed over the last years. Many of them were published more than 10 years ago. |

I've been learning IC technologies since long. Earlier I have compiled a listing of my study plan, see this one: vlsi.chm. This file was prepared in February 2017, and since then I have made a lot of changes ot my plan. |

After several years of learning I have realized that all these technologies are all not very optimistic in finding a practical way to replace silicon for faster computing. Therefore I have to think about whether ot not to continue in this direction. |
