Carbon-based electronics
Si CMOS is facing increasing challenges in continuing performance gains with channel length scaling due to the growing importance of fringe capacitance parasitics, short-channel effects due to degraded electrostatics, and gate leakage. |

On-chip characterization arrays for variability
Process variability is a critical concern in nanometer-scale CMOS, owing to random device fluctuations (dopant fluctuation, line-edge roughness) and also reticle and proximity effects, which have difficult-to-predict impacts on device characteristics. |

Circuits for intrachip communications and networks-on-chip
Using full-rail interfaces on chip (in which CMOS inverters drive CMOS over RC-dominated interconnect) is a very energy inefficient means of communication (for a given amount of bandwidth density) and results in unnecessarily long wire latencies. |

Power management circuits
Delivering power to integrated circuits is becoming an increasingly complex challenge. On the high end, chips can demand in excess of 150 W of power at supply voltages of less than 1 V, leading to current demands approaching 200 A. |
