Leti announces its 3rd workshop on Innovative Memory technologies

(Nanowerk News) CEA-Leti, a leading global research center committed to creating and commercializing innovation in micro- and nanotechnologies, is hosting its third workshop on innovative memory technologies at MINATEC on Wednesday, June 29, 2011.
The workshop will explore the latest achievements in semiconductor memory technologies. Topics will range from short-term to long-term memory solutions, including:
  • Floating-gate, charge-trap non-volatile memories for embedded or stand-alone applications
  • Resistive memory technologies such as phase-change memories and oxide–based memories
  • Three-dimensional integration approaches to increase memory density
  • Innovative ideas covering thin-film memories, bio-inspired memories and new architectures
  • The workshop will also feature presentations by leaders in the global memory industry, including Micron, Hynix, STMicroelectronics and Stanford University.
