Simulating the nanoscale properties of future electronics

The ability to design and control the properties of existing and new materials is a vital part of escaping the trial and error approach industries have relied on in the past. To get there, a robust understanding of the fundamental physical properties and mechanisms that govern materials at the nano-scale is essential.
Nanolayers applies a unique combination of theoretical physics and chemistry techniques to predict the properties of novel materials and apply them in a variety of multi-scale models: from accurate atomic scale physics to the design of functional films and devices.
Nanolayers materials design philosophy is showcased in its partnership with MDLSoft Inc, a leader in materials and device codesign. MDLSoft’s premier software platform Ginestra(TM) links Materials to Devices to accelerate the next wave of innovation in the semiconductor industry, encompassing continued feature scaling, New Computational Architectures and sensors.
In an Integrated Materials to Devices (IM2D) flow, Nanolayers applies state-of-the-art theoretical techniques to model atomic scale systems and predict the physical parameters needed for the simulation of electrical properties. This fundamental knowledge is used within Ginestra(TM) to accurately predict the performance, variability, and reliability of devices, a flow which allows for very rapid materials device co-optimisation.
