Industrial cultivation and talent training, two things should keep abreast of the same time. Hu Zheng-ming: The chip energy consumption has 1000 times times reduces the space, will be the main researc

As the integrated circuit technology reaches 7 nm, the physical limit of process technology is coming, Moore's law will go to the end, and began to become a hot topic in the industry, and even aroused the attention of ordinary people. In this respect, the University of California, Berkeley professor, FinFET inventor, the United States Top Technology award winner Hu Zheng-ming, the development of integrated circuit technology is far from terminated, micro-nano electronics can be done for another 100 years.

So will the integrated circuits continue to evolve along the previous path? How can the development speed be slowed down? A few days ago, the ' trillion easy integrated circuit science and Technology Museum ' officially opened, Professor Hu Zheng-ming attended the opening ceremony, and received an interview by the reporter. The development path of integrated circuits does not necessarily mean that the line width is smaller, and the memory is now moving in three-dimensional directions. Of course we would like to make it smaller, but we can also take other ways to promote the development of integrated circuit technology, such as reducing the energy consumption of chips. This direction chip still has 1000 times times the energy consumption can reduce. The line width of the miniature always has a limit, to some extent, there is no economic effect, driving people to continue this path to go on. But we do not necessarily have to go a way to the black, we can also change a thought, the same may achieve what we want to achieve. ' said Hu Zheng-ming. In fact, as far as integrated circuits are concerned, the goal is not to have a miniature line, but to increase the density of transistors, enhance chip processing performance, reduce energy consumption and reduce costs. In this case, Hu Zheng-ming predicts that future chip costs will not continue to decline as before. ' Any kind of industrial technology has developed to a certain extent, and the cost is unlikely to continue to decline as the previous chip industry continues to scale. It is likely that the cost of chips will no longer fall as fast as before, but at least it will cost no more. ' said Hu Zheng-ming. If costs do not continue to decline, then what are the economic factors that drive people to push Moore's law down? ' The former semiconductor market is a technology-driven type, with the development of technology to create market demand. I think the demand side will become more and more important in the future, which will be the main factor to promote the further development of IC industry and technology. ' From this point of view, there are so many areas of the world that need chips, ' says Hu Zheng-ming. With the development of intelligence, this demand will not be reduced. Since there is such a demand, integrated circuits will inevitably attract more investment to support the development of integrated circuits. There is such a need for the drive, the integrated circuit again 50 to 100 years of development is not a problem. ' With the development of integrated circuit industry from technology-driven to market-driven, the development of integrated circuit industry will be as fast as before? In this regard, Hu Zheng-ming that over the past 20 years, the global semiconductor market average growth rate of about 4.5%. This growth rate is not very fast. It would not be a problem if we were to grow at this rate in 50. Or, in other words, the pace of growth in the next 50 will not be lower than the growth rate of the past 20 years. Talent is the key factor to keep the continuous development of IC industry. Especially in recent years, China has made rapid development under the dual drive of policy and market. At the same time also faced a very serious talent gap. According to the topic of talent cultivation, Hu Zheng-ming that talent training is a long-term project, is not urgent. At the same time, Hu Zheng-ming that the development of the surrounding industry in schools has a positive promotion to school education. In the case of Silicon Valley, the University of California, Berkeley, has created many technology industries, but the two universities have also benefited from the development of neighboring industries. School teachers and industry approached, will have a more adequate understanding of market trends, in the teaching can be more targeted, but also can inspire students to learn power, and the results of the teacher's research will be the attention of the industrial sector, so that more innovative enthusiasm. If there is no industry, schools want to cultivate a good talent is also more difficult.
