| Technical Program—Tuesday PM Rump Sessions |
8:30 PM R-1
Steep Slope or Slippery Slope
Location: 101 Thomas |
Session Organizers:

Steep slope devices are being touted as a possible replacement for traditional MOSFETs
for commercial and military integrated circuits which operate with extremely low power
consumption without sacrificing performance. Many challenges remain towards
demonstration of these steep slope devices from optimum materials selection to device
architecture choice to performance benchmarking metrics to circuit application needs as
research continues in this exciting area. This panel will assemble leading researchers
from industry and academia to provide their valuable insight into the slippery or not so
slippery slope that lies ahead for steep slope devices.

Despite heightened interest in clean renewable sources of electricity there exist
cost/performance barriers which have historically limited broad adoption of candidate
technologies, and even mature ones such as photovoltaics. Advances in materials
research and manufacturing, coupled with changes in technology such as the emergence
of pervasive portable electronics and extremely low power consumption electronics may
finally allow for diverse energy scavenging devices to find use in the near future.
However, many challenges still remain in integrating disparate technologies, and in
meeting cost and performance requirements for specific applications. This panel will
assemble leading researchers from industry, academia, and government labs to
provide their valuable insight into the opportunities and challenges in realizing
commercially viable energy harvesting technologies.
