Circuit-Technology Co-Optimization of SRAM Design in Advanced CMOS Nodes
by Hsiao-Hsuan Liu Francky CatthoorModern computing engines—CPUs, GPUs, and NPUs—require extensive SRAM for cache designs, driven by the increasing demand for higher density, performance, and energy efficiency. This book delves into two primary areas within ultra-scaled technology nodes: (1) advancing SRAM bitcell scaling and (2) exploring innovative subarray designs to enhance power-performance-area (PPA) metrics across technology nodes. The first part of the book utilizes a bottom-up design-technology co-optimization (DTCO) approach, employing a dedicated PPA simulation framework to evaluate and identify the most promising strategies for SRAM bitcell scaling. It offers a comprehensive examination of SRAM bitcell scaling beyond 1 nm node, outlining a structured research cycle that includes identifying scaling bottlenecks, developing cutting-edge architectures with complementary field-effect transistor (CFET) technology, and addressing challenges such as process integration and routing complexities. Additionally, this book introduces a novel write margin methodology to better address the risks of write failures in resistance-dominated nodes. This methodology accounts for time-dependent parasitic bitline effects and incorporates timing setup of write-assist techniques to prevent underestimating the yield loss. In the second part, the focus shifts to a top-down DTCO approach due to the diminishing returns of bitcell scaling beyond 5 Å node at the macro level. As technology scales, increasing resistance and capacitance (RC) lead designers to adopt smaller subarray sizes to reduce effective RC and enhance subarray-level PPA. However, this approach can result in increased inter-subarray interconnect overhead, potentially offsetting macro-level improvements. This book examines the effects of various subarray sizes on macro-level PPA and finds that larger subarrays can significantly reduce interconnect overhead and improve the energy-delay-area product (EDAP) of SRAM macro. The introduction of the active interconnect (AIC) concept enables the use of larger subarray sizes, while integrating carbon nanotube FET as back-end-of-line compatible devices results in macro-level EDAP improvements of up to 65% when transitioning from standard subarrays to AIC divided subarrays. These findings highlight the future trajectory of SRAM subarray design in deeply scaled nodes.

Circular Bioeconomy: Towards a Sustainable Future
by Fazia Adyani Ahmad Fuad Faridah Yusof Amanatuzzakiah Abdul Halim Farah Ahmad Yusilawati Ahmad NorThis book highlights the efforts made to realize the concept of ‘Circular Bioeconomy’. It has twelve (12) chapters, focussed on five (5) sections, namely Biomaterials, Environment, Energy, Pharmaceutical and Enzyme Technology. It portrays research, linking ‘Circular Bioeconomy’ to the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The concept of ‘Circular Economy’, including ‘Circular Bioeconomy’, aims to shift the current, essentially linear economic system to a more sustainable one. Accordingly, the key goal of a ‘Circular Economy’ is to slow, narrow and close material resource loops, built on the foundation of renewable energy and non-toxic materials. Further, a sustainable ‘Bioeconomy’ goes beyond simply switching fossil resources with renewable, biological resources. It requires low-carbon energy inputs, sustainable supply chains and promising disruptive conversion technologies for the sustainable transformation of renewable bioresources to high-value bio-based products, materials and fuels. Thus, a sustainable ‘Circular Bioeconomy’ transition will necessitate a set of consistent metrics that fit all products and industries.
Circular Bioeconomy Perspectives in Sustainable Bioenergy Production (Energy, Environment, and Sustainability)
by Samuel Lalthazuala Rokhum Vijayanand Suryakant Moholkar Gurunathan Baskar Veeramuthu AshokkumarThis book covers the various technological developments and challenges in converting biomass residues into different forms of bioenergy. The continuous increase in the world population increased the demand for food products. The incorporation of modern technologies in agriculture increased the production of various food products, ending with excess generation of agricultural biomass residues from primary and secondary agriculture industries. Since, these biomass residues are a rich source of valuable bioproducts, they can be converted into various forms of bioenergy, such as biogas, biochar, biooil, biodiesel, and bioethanol. Besides, this approach is expected to address the gaps in biomass residue management and transformation to valuable bioproducts, and it also enhances the circular economy perspective. The book can be a valuable reference for beginners, researchers, and professionals interested in sustainable construction and allied fields.
