Graphene possesses remarkable electronic and mechanical properties and provides a promising platform to explore future nanoelectronic and nano electro-mechanical (NEM) devices for challenging applications. In this talk, we first present state-of-the-art fabrication technologies for sub-10-nm graphene nanostructures using atomic-size focused helium ion beam (Fig. 1) [1][2] and the HSQ-based electron...
Phononic crystals (PnC) are periodic structures that have an ability to forbid the propagation of elastic waves in certain frequency. This region is known as Phononic Band Gap (PnBg) and can be used as guiding or filtering for elastic or acoustic wave. This ability has attracted many researchers around the world and many applications can be found from it such as in sensor, multiplexer, acoustic lens...
Computation and infotainment are the two major areas where Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) electronics have made major contributions. Moving forward we expect to see their dominance in automotive applications. At the same time, we are seeing increased interest in the area of Internet of Things (IoT) to connect trillions of sensors. We are preparing for Internet of Everything (IoE) applications...
Manufacturing contributes more than 80% of Malaysia's exports in 2016, with Integrated Circuits (IC) making-up a major portion of this. According to recent SEMI projections, semiconductors continue to grow by 17% in 2017, across various technology nodes. SilTerra, a home-grown semiconductor foundry, is a relatively small player, by global standards. However, it is a significant contributor to value-added...
On behalf of the IEEE Electron Devices Malaysia Chapter, I would like to welcome all participants and paper presenters to the 2016 IEEE International Conference on Semiconductor Electronics (ICSE2016). This is the 12th international organized by the IEEE Electron Devices Malaysia Chapter and technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Electron Devices Society. I am very pleased with the positive response...
On behalf of the organizing committee, it is with great pleasure to welcome you to the 12th IEEE International Conference on Semiconductor Electronics 2016 (ICSE2016). Over the last twenty four years, ICSE has become the preeminent international forum on semiconductor electronics embracing all aspects of the semiconductor technology from circuit device, modelling and simulation, photonics and sensor...
The IEEE-ICSE2016 is aiming at bringing together researchers from industry and academia to gather and explore various issues and trends in the field of micro and nano electronics. ICSE has become the prominent international forum on semiconductor electronics embracing all aspects of the semiconductor technology from circuits, device modeling and simulation, photonics and sensor technology.
This paper presents a tunable Radio Frequency Micro Electromechanical Systems (RF-MEMS) coupled band-pass filter (BPF) with wide tuning range based on the Chebyshev fourth degree equivalent circuit using inter-digitized tunable capacitors, and fixed inductors. A new tunable BPF with a 100% tuning range from 3.1 to 4.9 GHz has been designed and simulated to verify the proposed method. The band-pass...
In this paper, the modeling and simulation of a layered surface acoustic wave device based on ZnO/128° YX LiNbO3 were conducted using Finite Element Method (FEM) in COMSOL Multiphysics 4.3b platform. The SAWs propagation characteristics were numerically investigated with variation in the ZnO layer thickness. The results show that the SAW device frequency response was varied with the ZnO layer thickness...
This paper reports on the fabrication of PDMS micropillars as force sensor for C. elegans locomotion measurement. Three different designs have been fabricated; starting from a channel like design with two parallel rows, to increasing the number of micropillar rows in Design 2, and finally a 9 × 9 mm square chamber with multiple arrays of PDMS pillars arranged in a lattice and honeycomb structure....
This paper presents the development of an artificial basilar membrane (ABM) in order to biologically mimic the performance of a cochlea in human auditory system. The developed ABM should operate in an audible frequency range of a normal human ear which is in between 20 Hz to 20000 Hz. Two microelectromechanical system (MEMS) cochlear biomodel design; Straight Bridge Beams (SBB) and Straight Bridge...
Dielectric charges cause stiction problems in most capacitive RF-MEMS switches, creating a major reliability issue during production. A new method based on finite-element-method simulation is developed in this paper to analyze the dielectric charging effect on the RF-MEMS switch's pull voltages (namely, pull-in and pull-out voltages). The pull voltages have been simulated by using a triangular voltage...
