 #285 In recent years, pronounced trends like the Internet of Things or 5G has led to more and more connected and digitalized cyber-physical systems. This results in an increased demand on embedded dedicated hardware security. Hence, unclonable, unpredictable and tamper-evident hardware security primitives, such as Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs), became more and more important. In this context, emerging nanotechnologies based on nanomaterials such as Carbon Nanotube got into focus due to technological compatibility to CMOS as well as promising security features.

#281 The impact of moisture on the reliability of silica thin films can lead to dramatic effect in microelectronic and microelectromechanical systems. For the deposition of Silica, different techniques can be used, which usually requires high temperature treatments. A thermal oxidation usually takes places at temperatures above 1000 °C, whereas the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of silica by TEOS still takes temperature above 700 °C. Within the beginning of the 21th century, the microelectronic industry focuses more on the introduction and optimization of high- and low-k dielectrics, whereas novel emerging devices and technologies require low-temperature oxides. Low temperature silica can either be deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) at temperature below 400 °C or by spin coating techniques. However, the lower the deposition temperature, the lower the material properties like mechanical and electrical stability, density or material defects. This all can lead to an increasing uptake of moisture in low temperature oxides and low-k dielectrics. Further process steps can led to a higher amount of water inside the material and therefor to a further degradation of the silica, which finally causes a failure of the whole system. Consequently, developing new devices and technologies needs well-defined knowledge of process- and material-properties and parameter.

#282 Silica is one of the most used oxides in microelectronics and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) as high-quality, mechanical and electrical very stable insulator and passivation layer. Prominent examples are the gate isolation of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) or the Inter- and Intra- level dielectrics in integrated circuits (ICs). For the deposition of Silica, different techniques can be used, which usually requires high temperature treatments. A thermal oxidation usually takes places at temperatures above 1000 °C, whereas the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of silica by TEOS still takes temperature above 700 °C.

#284 Die CarbonNanodevice Gruppe am ZfM/ Fraunhofer ENAS erforscht und entwickelt Kohlenstoff-basierende nano-elektronische Bauelemente für Elektronik und Sensoranwendungen. Es konnte bereits gezeigt werden, dass mit einer noch nicht optimierten Kohlenstoffnanoröhren-Technologie die Performance von State-of-the-art Silizium Hochfrequenz-Transistoren erreicht werden kann. Hierfür wird hochspezielles und einzigartiges Equipment verwendet, welches auf die Integration und Vermessung von Nanomaterialien in Bauelementen und Systemen ausgelegten ist. Im Rahmen einer Studentenarbeit soll die Leistungsfähigkeit solcher HF Transistoren weiter verbessert werden.
