ECE 587 - Integrated Electronics

(4 credits)

Modern microelectronics processes and fabrication of integrated circuits. Crystal growth and wafer preparation, photolithography, dielectric and polysilicon film deposition, epitaxial growth, oxidation, diffusion, ion implantation, etching, metallization and integrated circuits layout principles. Introduction to MOS-based and bipolar junction transistor-based microcircuits design and fabrication. Fabrication processing simulation using SUPREM, with projects. Previously EE 587. Credit cannot be received for both ECE 587 and EE 587.Offered winter, even years.
