Special Section on ESSDERC 2021

Abstract

The current trend of applicative diversification in the semiconductor market, together with steepening technological challenges have stressed the need for increasingly holistic approaches based on co-optimization across the traditionally defined domains. In this context, our semiconductor research community benefits more than ever from international conferences such as ESSCIRC-ESSDERC, bringing together device physicists, semiconductor technologists, IC designers, and architects from academia and industry alike to showcase and exchange their latest results and innovative ideas.
