In logic devices such as finFETs (field-effect transistors), metal gate parasitic capacitance can negatively impact electrical performance. One way to reduce this parasitic capacitance is to optimize ...

The IC industry is headed toward a new era of scaling–and uncertainty–as chip makers race to develop the key building blocks for the next-generation transistor: high-k dielectrics and metal gates.

The Callaway County Sheriff's Department is investigating recent thefts of about a dozen metal farm gates in southern Callaway County. "We presume the thefts may be for the purpose of selling scrap ...
