DESCRIPTION:Despite the much-debated end of Moore&#39;s Law\, CMOS scaling stil
 l maintains economic relevance with 2nm gate-all-around SoCs (Intel 18A) a
 lready in high-volume manufacturing since January 2026. Area scaling exten
 sively driven by design/technology innovations co-optimized for primarily 
 logic scaling continues to offer compelling node-to-node power\, performan
 ce\, area\, and cost benefits. In this tutorial\, we will start with a wal
 k through memory lane\, recounting a brief history of transistor evolution
  to motivate the migration from the planar MOSFET to the fully depleted Fi
 nFET. We will summarize the key process technology elements that have enab
 led the finFET CMOS nodes\, highlighting the resulting technology characte
 ristics and challenges. This will set the stage for transitioning to the n
 anoribbon gate-all-around device architecture and unveiling the magic of h
 ow these devices are fabricated.\n\nSpeaker(s): Alvin Loke\, \n\nVirtual:
