Build the microchips of the future with this revolutionary new information transfer technology

Advancements in high-performance computing have continually demanded for progress in disruptive technological research and innovations. Moore’s Law has pushed the Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technology to pack MOS devices inside a chip at an exponential rate, thereby surpassing now eight billion transistors per cm2. This has concomitantly fueled the growth of multilayered on-chip interconnects comprising metallic and low dielectric materials.

Artificial Plasmonics for VLSI Interconnects introduces a new method for improving chip performance by harnessing the power of information transfer among chips at terahertz frequency. This revolutionary new electromagnetic wave engineering, called a spoof surface plasmon polariton, adapts the principles of VLSI and terahertz interconnect technology along with the artificial plasmonics to transfer huge quantities of data at vastly improved speeds. It constitutes a potentially decisive contribution to the pursuit of faster and more capacious VLSI chips.
