TFET Integrated Circuits

Costin Anghel (M'08) received the B.S. and M.S. degrees from the Polytechnic Institute of Bucharest, Bucharest, Romania, in 1998, and 1999 and the Ph.D. degree from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland in 2004. He obtained his HDR (Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches) degree form Université Pierre et Marie CURIE (UPMC), Paris, France. He is currently an Associate Professor with the Micro-Nano-Electronics Laboratory, Institut Supérieur d'Electronique de Paris (ISEP), Paris, France. He held a Post-Doctoral Fellow position at LETI-CEA, Grenoble, France between 2006 and 2008, being involved in the development of the nanostructures using carbon nanotubes. At ISEP, he conducts research projects in the area of simulation and modeling of the novel devices and circuits. His research interests are related to the tunneling FETs, non-volatile memories, CNTFETs and organic/molecular devices. Dr. Anghel is an expert for "Nanoelectronics" section of the Observatory for Micro and Nano Technologies (www.omnt.fr). He is also an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Nanotechnology. Navneet Gupta is a Doctoral student at the Institut Superieur d'Electronique de Paris. His research is mainly focused on CMOS, Tunnel FET (TFETs) and CMOS/TFET Hybrid Circuits for ultra-low leakage, low cost IoT Applications and adaptive circuits for re-configurable computing. Adam Makosiej is a Doctoral student CEA-LETI in Grenoble, France. Prof. Amara AMARA obtained his HDR (Confirmation of Leading Research Capabilities) from Evry University, a Ph.D. in computer science in 1989 and a Master in 1984 in microelectronics and computer science from Paris VI University. Amara is Vice President of the French IEEE Section since January 2004. From 2000 to 2004 he was Chairman of the IEEE-CAS French Chapter (Recipient of the 2004 Best Chapter of the Year Award and a Certificate of Appreciation from IEEE Regional Activities) and is currently member of the IEEE CASS Board of Governors. Among other activities, Amara is member of the Board of Directors of "ISEP-Enterprises" association, member of the CEMIP Executive Committee (Il-de-France Center for Microelectronics Education), former member of the CEA Scientific Committee, and expert for the Swiss Science Foundation and the ANR (National research Agency). He initiated and is still Chair of the Steering Committee of FTFC, a Low Voltage and Low Power Workshop, now held every year. Amara is member of numerous Conference Technical Program Committees and Conference organizing Committees, member of the Editorial Board of MicroElectronics Journal. He chaired ICICDT 2008 in Grenoble and IEEE ISCAS 2010 in Paris for which he has been awarded the Bronze Medals respectively of the cities of Grenoble and Paris. Amara published a book on Molecular Electronics and co-edited two books: "Double-Gate FD SOI devices and circuits" and "Emerging Technologies and Circuits". He is co-author of numerous papers published in IEEE conferences and journals. He was advisor of more than 15 PhD students on subjects related to his research interests.< Andrei Vladimirescu received his MS and PhD degrees from the University of California, Berkeley, where he was a main contributor in the development of the circuit simulator SPICE. He is the author of the leading text on the subject, The SPICE Book. Andrei conceived and managed the development of a number of analog and mixed-signal Electronic Design Automation products for Daisy Systems, Analog Design Tools, Valid and Cadence. Today, Andrei is a professor at the University of California Berkeley and at the Institut Superieur d'Electronique de Paris (ISEP). His research interests are in analog simulation, modeling and design, ultra-low-voltage design and circuit techniques for new technologies.
