 INTRODUCTION

Transistors are the microscopic, silicon-based

switches that process the ones and zeros of
the digital worlds and are the fundamental
building block of all semiconductor chips. With
traditional planar transistors, electronic signals
travel as if on a flat, one-way road.
DEFINITION
HISTORY
 Since their inception in the late 1950s,
planar transistors have acted as the basic
building block of microprocessors. The
scaling of planar transistors requires the
scaling of gate oxides and source/drain
junctions. In 2002 Intel developed the
world’s first CMOS tri-gate transistor,which
employs a novel three-dimensional gate
design that improves the drive current. Tri-
gate transistors are expected to replace the
nanometer transistors in the Intel
microprocessors by 2010
ARCH
 The tri-gate is built on an ultra-thin layer of
fully depleted silicon for reduced current
leakage. This allows the transistor to turn
on and off faster, while dramatically
reducing power consumption. It also
incorporates a raised source and drain
structure for low resistance, which allows
the transistor to be driven with less power.
The design is also compatible with the
future introduction of a high K gate
dielectric for even lower leakage.
 Moore's law describes a long-term trend
in the history of computing hardware, in
which the number of transistors that can be
placed inexpensively on an integrated
circuit has doubled approximately every
two years.Moore's law 21st centuries
precisely describes a driving force of
technological and social change in the late
20th and early.
ADVANTAGE
 Lower leakage and consume much less
power.
 Faster & cooler operation.

 45% increase in speed or 50x reduction in

off-current.
 The basic building blocks for future
microprocessors.
 Moore's Law scaling can be taken well into
the next decade .
