Recently a new class of quantum gate called $NCV-{\mid}v_1$ > library with low cost realizable potentialities is being watched with keen interest. The $NCV-{\mid}v_1$ > MCT gate is composed of AND cascaded-$CV-{\mid}v_1$ > gates to control the target qudit and its adjoint gates to erase junk ones. This paper presents a new symmetrical duality library named $NCV^{\dag}-{\mid}v_1$ > library corresponding to $NCV-{\mid}v_1$ > library. The new $NCV^{\dag}-{\mid}v_1$ > library can be operated on OR logic under certain conditions. By using both the $NCV-{\mid}v_1$ > and $NCV^{\dag}-{\mid}v_1$ > libraries it is possible to realize MPMCT gates, SOP and POS type synthesis of quantum logic circuits with extremely low cost, and expect dual gate property caused by different operational attributes with respect to forward and backward operations.

This study is concerned with implementing an external memory expansion device for large-scale image processing. It consists of an external memory adapter card with a PCI(Peripheral Component Interconnect) Express Gen3 x8 interface mounted on a graphics workstation for image processing and an external memory board with external DDR(Dual Data Rate) memory. The connection between the memory adapter card and the external memory board is made through the optical interface. In order to access the external memory, both Programmable I/O and DMA(Direct Memory Access) methods can be used to efficiently transmit and receive image data. We implemented the result of this study using the boards equipped with Altera Stratix V FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) and 40G optical transceiver and the test result shows 1.6GB/s bandwidth performance.. It can handle one channel of 4K UHD(Ultra High Density) image. We will continue our study in the future for showing bandwidth of 3GB/s or more.

We manufacture an antifuse OTP (One-time programmable) cell for analog trimming which will be used in power management ICs. For the antifuse cell using dual program voltage of VPP (=7V) and VNN (=-5V), the thin gate oxide is broken down by applying a voltage higher than the hard break-down voltage to the terminals of the antifuse. The area of the manufactured antifuse OTP cell using $0.18{\mu}m$ BCD process is $48.01{\mu}m^2$ and is about 44.6 percent of that of an eFuse cell. The post-program resistances of the antifuse are good with the values under several kilo ohms when we measure twenty test patterns.

In this paper, we proposed a dual-directional SCR (silicon-controlled rectifier) based ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection circuit. In comparison with conventional SCR, this ESD protection circuit can provide an effective protection against ESD pulses in the two opposite directions, so the ESD protection circuit can be discharged in two opposite direction. The proposed circuit has a higher holding voltage characteristic than conventional SCR. These characteristic enable to have latch-up immunity under normal operating conditions as well as superior full chip ESD protection. it was analyzed to figure out electrical characteristics in term of individual design parameters. They are investigated by using the Synopsys TCAD simulator. In the simulation results, it has trigger voltage of 6.5V and holding voltage increased with different design parameters. The holding voltage of the proposed circuit changes from 2.1V to 6.3V and the proposed circuit has symmetrical I-V characteristic for positive and negative ESD pulse.

This paper presents the design of a down-conversion mixer with built-in active balun integrated in a $0.25\;{\mu}m$ pHEMT process. The active balun consists of series-connected common-gate FET and common-source FET. The designed balun achieved broadband characteristics by optimizing gate-width and bias condition for the reduction in parasitic effect. From DC to more than 6GHz, the active balun shows the phase error of less than 3 degree and the gain error of less than 0.4 dB. A single-balanced down-conversion mixer with built-in broadband active balun has been designed with optimum width, load resistor and bias for conversion gain and without any matching component for broadband operating. The designed mixer whose size of including on-chip bias circuit is $1\;mm{\times}1\;mm$ shows the conversion gain of better than 7 dB from 2 GHz to 6 GHz and $P_{1dB}$ of -10 dBm at 5.8 GHz

Two-dimensional van der Waals (2D vdWs) materials have been extensively studied for future electronics and materials sciences due to their unique properties. Among them, black phosphorous (BP) has shown infinite potential for various device applications because of its high mobility and direct narrow band gap (~0.3 eV). In this work, we demonstrate a few-nm thick BP-based nonvolatile memory devices with an well-known poly(vinylidenefluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] ferroelectric polymer gate insulator. Our BP ferroelectric memory devices show the highest linear mobility value of $1159cm^2/Vs$ with a $10^3$ on/off current ratio in our knowledge. Moreover, we successfully fabricate the ferroelectric complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) memory inverter circuits, combined with an n-type $MoS_2$ nanosheet transistor. Our memory CMOS inverter circuits show clear memory properties with a high output voltage memory efficiency of 95%. We thus conclude that the results of our ferroelectric memory devices exhibit promising perspectives for the future of 2D nanoelectronics and material science. More and advanced details will be discussed in the meeting.

CMOS 축소화가 32nm node를 넘어서 지속적으로 진행되기 위하여 FinFET, Surround Gate and Tri-Gate와 같은 Fully Depleted 3-Dimensional 소자들이 SCE를 다루기 위해서 많이 제안되어 왔다. 하지만 소자의 축소화를 진행함에 있어서 좁고 균일한 patterning을 형성하는 것과 동시에 낮은 Extension Region과 Contact Region에서의 Series Resistance을 제공하여야 하고 Source/Drain Contact Formation을 확보하여야 한다. 그리고 소자의 축소화가 진행됨으로써 Silicide의 응집현상과 Source/Drain Junction의 누설전류에 대한 허용범위가 점점 엄격해지고 있다. ITRS 2005에 따르면 32nm CMOS에서는 Contact Resistivity가 대략 $2{\times}10-8{\Omega}cm2$이 요구되고 있다. 또한 Three Dimensional 소자에서는 Fin Corner Effect가 Channel Region뿐만 아니라 S/D Region에서도 중대한 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제시하는 Novel S/D Contact Formation 기술을 이용하여 Self-Aligned Dual/Single Metal Contact을 이루어Patterning에 대한 문제점 해결과 축소화에 따라 증가하는 Contact Resistivity 문제점을 해결책을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 검증하기3D MOSFET제작하고 본 기술을 적용하고 검증한다. 또한 Normal Doping 구조를 가진3D MOSFET뿐만 아니라 SCE를 해결하기 위해서 대안으로 제시되고 있는 SB-MOSFET을 3D 구조로 제작하고, 이 기술을 적용하여 검증한다. 그리고 Silvaco simulation tool을 이용하여 S/D에 Metal이 Contact을 이루는 구조가 Double type과 Triple type에 따라 Contact Resistivity에 미치는 영향을 미리 확인하였고 이를 실험으로 검증하여 소자의 축소화에 따라 대두되는 문제점들의 해결책을 제시하고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose a flexible turbo decoding algorithm for a high order modulation scheme that uses a standard half-rate turbo decoder designed for binary quadrature phase-shift keying (B/QPSK) modulation. A transformation applied to the incoming I-channel and Q-channel symbols allows the use of an off-the-shelf B/QPSK turbo decoder without any modifications. Iterative codes such as turbo codes process the received symbols recursively to improve performance. As the number of iterations increases, the execution time and power consumption also increase. The proposed algorithm reduces the latency and power consumption by combination of the radix-4, dual-path processing, parallel decoding, and early-stop algorithms. We implement the proposed scheme on a field-programmable gate array and compare its decoding speed with that of a conventional decoder. The results show that the proposed flexible decoding algorithm is 6.4 times faster than the conventional scheme.

In this paper, we present a novel Lateral Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor(LIGBT) structure. The proposed structure has extra emitter between emitter and collector of the conventional structure. The added emitter can significantly improve latch-up current densities, forward voltage drop (Vce,sat) and turn-off characteristics. From the simulation results, the proposed LIGBT has the lower forward voltage drop(1.05V), the higher latch-up current densities($2.5{\times}10^3\;A/{\mu}m^2$), and the shorter turn-off time(7.4us) than those of the conventional LIGBT.
