Impact of temperature on IC performance15oC temperature increase:• Cell and interconnect delay (10-15%)• Crosstalk noise level increase (up to 25%)• Leakage power exponential increase with

temperature – 90nm →25-40% of total power– 60nm→50-70% of total power– Potential thermal runaway

• Lifetime exponential decrease with temperature (x ¼) – e.g. electromigration, oxide breakdown

• Clock gating and multithreshold CMOS increase on-chip thermal variation

• Silicon Chip 10x10x0.5 mm3, assume 100W• 400µm diameter hot spot in the center, 1KW/cm2 heat

flux (1.25W) → ∆Thot spot ~7C

∆Thot spot is approximately independent of the technique used to cool the whole chip.Example: If the heat transfer coefficient changes from 5 to 20 KW/m2K, this will change Taverage from 225 to 75C; when the average power dissipation is ~100W/cm2 but this will not change ∆Thotspot

When the current flows from material (a) into material (b) and then back to material (a), it heats the first junction and cools the second one (or vice versa). Thus, heat is transferred from one junction to the other one.

ErAs Semi-metal Nanoparticlesimbedded in InGaAs Semiconductor Matrix

Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) provides atomic layer control

ErAs dots are lattice-matched and incorporate without any visible defects in InGaAs despite different crystal structures (Cubic vs. Zinc-blende)

• “Random” ErAs particles ~ 2-3 nm

• Size is invariant to growth conditions
