RESEARCH MAIN ACHIEVEMENTS

• From 2008 to 2022, I was leading the “MODEL” team and has 20 years’ experience in advanced and emerging device modelling including the world-wide-used and the success story of the Carbon Nanotube based transistor models.

• I was the leader of the former ANR ROBUST project (2009-2012) which was an ambitious industrial research project focused on advanced technological activities to provide robust ICs designs for emerging 100G Ethernet.

• I was leading the project ULTIMATE (2016-2021), a five-year international ambitious project focused on upper limit InP-based technology investigations mandatory to attain THz electronics. The ULTIMATE project tackles the design of ultrahigh-speed transistors on a fundamental atomistic level, with Density-Functional Theory (DFT) for accurate band structure calculations and quantum transport simulations to break through the present bandwidth bottleneck and finally experimentally achieve 750-1000 GHz cutoff frequencies. http://ultimate.cnrs.fr/

• I was leading the French ANR LEGO (2018-2022) project which is intended to fill the gap between device research and the innovative logic circuit implementation through the following objectives:

  –  demonstrate the proof of concept of stacked vertical NWFET for non-conventional logic circuit,

  – develop a design kit including compact models to support the circuit design flow

  – prove enhanced logic functionality and logic circuit operation in terms of propagation delay, dynamic and static power consumption, resilience to temperature and supply voltage variation assess the technology roadmap improvements and the associated logic performance metrics. http://lego.cnrs.fr/

• Currently, I’m leading the Programme H2020 FET PROACT FVLLMONTI (2021-2025) , “Ferroelectric Vertical Low energy, Low latency, low volumes Modules fOr Neural network Transformers In 3D”. Through actual Vertical NanoWaire Field Effect Transistr, VNWFET fabrication setting up a design-technology co-optimization (DTCO) approach, the FVLLMONTI vision is to develop regular 3D stacked hardware layers of NNs empowering the most efficient machine translation thanks to fine-grain hardware / software co-optimisation. http://www.fvllmonti.eu/

• Since May 2024, I coordinate the “Ferro Futures” action for the PEPR ELECTRONIQUE. The aim is to demonstrate all the scientific and technological elements necessary to set up the value chain of a future French Ferroelectronics Sector that meets the specific needs of Embedded Artificial Intelligence (IAe).  http://www.pepr-electronique.fr/fer/
