And a new modeling solution, Agile PDK is presented to break though these development challenges by enabling the Design Technology Co-Optimization (DTCO) activities in the manufacturing levels. A series of advanced algorithms are newly introduced to not only reduce the PDK development time (TAT), but also improve the model accuracies and Model-to-Hardware Correlation (MHC). It is applied to the latest DRAM technology and dramatically reduces the development TAT up to 50% with improved model accuracies.","PeriodicalId":170070,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Simulation of Semiconductor Processes and Devices (SISPAD)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132493277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The switching current can be reduced by allowing the wire through which the second pulse is delivered to overlap only partly with the free layer. Surprisingly, the partial overlap makes the switching faster and 100% robust.","PeriodicalId":170070,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Simulation of Semiconductor Processes and Devices (SISPAD)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116805209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
