1. Optimal and Robust Control

   Advanced Topics with MATLAB®

   By Luigi Fortuna, Mattia Frasca

   While there are many books on advanced control for specialists, there are few that present these topics for nonspecialists. Assuming only a basic knowledge of automatic control and signals and systems, Optimal and Robust Control: Advanced Topics with MATLAB® offers a straightforward, self-contained...

2. Nonvolatile Memory Design

   Magnetic, Resistive, and Phase Change

   By Hai Li, Yiran Chen

   The manufacture of flash memory, which is the dominant nonvolatile memory technology, is facing severe technical barriers. So much so, that some emerging technologies have been proposed as alternatives to flash memory in the nano-regime. Nonvolatile Memory Design: Magnetic, Resistive, and Phase...

4. Nano-CMOS Gate Dielectric Engineering

   By Hei Wong

   According to Moore’s Law, not only does the number of transistors in an integrated circuit double every two years, but transistor size also decreases at a predictable rate. At the rate we are going, the downsizing of CMOS transistors will reach the deca-nanometer scale by 2020. Accordingly, the...

7. Semiconductors

   Integrated Circuit Design for Manufacturability

   By Artur Balasinski

   Because of the continuous evolution of integrated circuit manufacturing (ICM) and design for manufacturability (DfM), most books on the subject are obsolete before they even go to press. That’s why the field requires a reference that takes the focus off of numbers and concentrates more on larger...
