First Hiroshima International Workshop on Nanoelectronics for Terra-Bit Information Processing
Hiroshima Univ., March 17, 2003
The forum for discussing future prospects of silicon nanoelectronics & nanodevice technologies with the experts in the related fields

Recently, the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has elected Hiroshima University as a Center of Excellence (COE) on "Nanoelectronics for Terra-Bit Information Processing" in its 21st Century COE Program. The scientific core of this COE is formed by the Research Center for Nanodevices and Systems (RCNS) and cooperating members from the Graduate School for Advanced Sciences of Matter.
The purpose of this workshop is to offer the forum for discussing future prospects of silicon nanoelectronics and nanodevice technologies with the experts in the related fields.
Our main goals are:
? Unification of silicon-based system, circuit, device-modeling and device-fabrication research
? Solution of the persistent 3-diminsional-integration problems by a wireless integration methodology
? Realization of integrated systems with high-level recognition and learning capabilities by innovative circuits and architectures
Our research fields and present research subjects are summarized as follows:
I. Electronic circuits and system architecture
1. High frequency analog circuits
Prof. A. Iwata & Assoc. Prof. M. Sasaki
