One Day National Level Seminar on Advancement in Nano-scale Semiconductor Device Design

Today there is almost no area of technical endeavour that is not impacted in some way by the advance devices. To teach the basics of how modern CMOS devices are designed for better power performance compared to previous generation when simple geometric shrinking no longer works. This seminar will be useful for the students, researchers, designers and technologists who want to work on advanced devices. It is assessed that 50-60% of electricity used in the world is controlled by power semiconductor devices. Power semiconductor devices play a crucial role in the regulation and distribution of power and energy in the world. Power electronics is the application of solid state devices to control and convert electrical power. Power semiconductor devices are recognized as the key components for all power electronic systems. Many novel devices are being explored currently.
