Opens up

What it covers

Topics

  • Integrated-circuit and MEMS fabrication technologies
  • Lithography and the scaling that drives it
  • Thin-film deposition and etch processes
  • Nanofabrication techniques
  • Process integration and yield

Results worth carrying out

  • Rayleigh resolution

    CD=k1λNA,DOF=k2λNA2\mathrm{CD} = k_1 \frac{\lambda}{\mathrm{NA}}, \qquad \mathrm{DOF} = k_2 \frac{\lambda}{\mathrm{NA}^2}
  • Deal–Grove oxide growth

    xox2+A xox=B (t+τ)x_{ox}^2 + A\,x_{ox} = B\,(t + \tau)
  • Etch selectivity and anisotropy

    S=RfilmRmask,A=1−RlatRvertS = \frac{R_{\text{film}}}{R_{\text{mask}}}, \qquad A = 1 - \frac{R_{\text{lat}}}{R_{\text{vert}}}

We also write the summaries.

This map tells you what a course contains. The summaries, the tutoring and the people who already took it are the part you get by joining.

The topic outlines are not official syllabi. The university publishes a catalogue blurb per course, not lecture-by-lecture material, so each outline describes what a course of that name, at those hours, with those prerequisites teaches at engineering schools generally, cross-checked against the standard textbook for the subject. Treat it as an informed map, not as a transcript of the lectures.
