LESSON PACKET / SA-DEV-CFET-001

Stacked devices still need contact evidence.
Device

CFET is not just a smaller cell picture. The useful question is whether vertical stacking survives contact resistance, local interconnect capacitance, via alignment, thermal coupling, and integration risk once a circuit context is attached.

EVIDENCE SEQUENCE

What the learner should inspect first.

This surface connects the daily-scan source signal to an original SemiAgora simulation object without copying source text, code, figures, PDK files, or process recipes.

01

Start with architecture profile: lateral GAA, forksheet, monolithic CFET, or sequential CFET.

Open the run card to inspect the saved rows, methods, limits, and export files behind this step.

Inspect run card ->
02

Add contact scheme, local interconnect pitch, via strategy, thermal context, and circuit context before reading any density score.

Open the run card to inspect the saved rows, methods, limits, and export files behind this step.

Inspect run card ->
03

Use the decision gate to decide whether the row is contact-limited, via-limited, thermal-limited, integration-limited, or a promising density tradeoff.

Open the run card to inspect the saved rows, methods, limits, and export files behind this step.

METHODS

Precomputed model contract.

The goal is useful study scaffolding and paper-planning discipline, not calibrated production evidence.

method

Original synthetic CFET pathfinding table based on public imec, IRDS, and Synopsys vocabulary.

The simulation object keeps the same statement beside downloadable JSON and CSV evidence.

method

No PDK, TCAD deck, device stack recipe, layout, extraction tech file, or measured silicon data is copied.

The simulation object keeps the same statement beside downloadable JSON and CSV evidence.

method

The browser filters saved CSV rows and exposes the model card with no-live-solver boundaries.

The simulation object keeps the same statement beside downloadable JSON and CSV evidence.

LIMITS

Useful, but deliberately bounded.

No account, upload, payment, comment, newsletter, live solver, facility workflow, or product-release surface is enabled.

non-claim

No calibrated CFET compact model, 3D PEX result, foundry node rule, process integration flow, or measured silicon claim.

Keep this boundary attached when reusing the card for lesson writing, figure planning, or research notes.

non-claim

No live TCAD, PEX, SPICE, field solver, uploaded layout, account, payment, comment, newsletter signup, job/event workflow, or public service intake.

Keep this boundary attached when reusing the card for lesson writing, figure planning, or research notes.

non-claim

Real work needs owned process assumptions, contact extraction, variation modeling, thermal evidence, circuit context, and design-owner review.

Keep this boundary attached when reusing the card for lesson writing, figure planning, or research notes.

SOURCE ANCHOR

Link-only public source spine.

SemiAgora uses the source as a signal and citation anchor, then writes original summaries and original toy data with explicit limitations.
