Topic: Beautiful Life from Innovation of Integrated Circuit
Abstract In 1947, Bell Labs of the US officially demonstrated the first transistor based on germanium semiconductor, marking the birth of the modern semiconductor industry and the opening of the information age. Fifty years ago, Jack Kilby invented IC. This invention laid the foundation for modern microelectronics. Transistor and IC were the biggest technological revolution in the latter half of 20th Century. Over these years, IC has been developed under the guidance of Moore's Law and has affected the entire human society and penetrated into our daily life. However, when mainstream IC technology has reached 7nm, it’s little room to further scaling. Innovation on fundamental device and integration technology are the driving force for future IC development.
