Abstract:
The rise of artificial intelligent (AI)-driven marvels hinges on the unrelenting advances in digital memory and storage solutions. The exponential trajectory of improvements of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) and NAND flash, which are the mainstays of main memory and storage, respectively, is however facing formidable challenges at the technology level.
In this talk, we will discuss the potential of the emerging ferroelectric technologies to upend the DRAM and NAND landscapes [1-3]. We will highlight how ferroelectrics can enable the transition from 2-D to 3-D in DRAM technology and facilitate vertical scaling in NAND technology to achieve the 1000-layer milestone and beyond. We will also explore how ferroelectric devices can contribute to embedded and storage class memory technologies and examine the challenges they face.

Speaker Bio:
Asif Khan is an Associate Professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering with a courtesy appointment in the School of Materials Science and Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology. Dr. Khan’s research focuses on ferroelectric materials and devices to address the challenges faced by the semiconductor technology due to the end of transistor miniaturization. His work led to the first experimental proof-of-concept demonstration of the ferroelecric negative capacitance, which can reduce the power dissipation in transistors. His recent interest is understanding and demonstrating the fundamental limits of memory technologies concerning their scalability, density, capacity, performance, and reliability. His group publishes research on topics that include both logic and memory technologies, as well as artificial intelligence and neuromorphic hardware. Dr Khan’s notable awards include the DARPA Young Faculty Award (2021), the NSF CAREER award (2021), the Intel Rising Star award (2020), the Qualcomm Innovation Fellowship (2012), TSMC Outstanding Student Research Award (2011) and University Gold Medal from Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (2011). Dr. Khan received the Class of 1934 CIOS Honor Roll award for excellence in teaching a graduate course on Quantum Computing Devices and Hardware in Fall 2020. He is presently serving as an editor at IEEE Electron Device Letters. In the past, he has also worked as an associate editor for IEEE Access, and as a technical program committee member for various conferences including IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM) and Design Automation Conference (DAC), among others.
