Abstract :
As processes are being defined and transistor architectures are being selected for the 45 nm node, the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) provides a worthwhile reference for comparing options. In this paper, we discuss those parameters of the ITRS which are related to transistor junctions, from the viewpoint of one selecting a transistor design. Any selection involves tradeoffs, so by addressing how much leeway is expected for the different targets, those selections can be simplified. Along the way, we highlight some interesting contrasts, and present some unique approaches for reaching the targets
