The peculiarity of such technology is an inherent flexibility in terms of performance and integration density according to the architecture devised for integration. The NOR Flash technology is still the workhorse of many code storage applications in the embedded world, ranging from microcontrollers for automotive environment to IoT smart devices. Their usage is also forecasted to be fundamental in emerging AI edge scenario. On the contrary, when massive data storage is required, NAND Flash memories are necessary to have in a system. You can find NAND Flash in USB sticks, cards, but most of all in Solid-State Drives (SSDs). Since SSDs are extremely demanding in terms of storage capacity, they fueled a new wave of innovation, namely the 3D architecture. Today "3D" means that multiple layers of memory cells are manufactured within the same piece of silicon, easily reaching a terabit capacity. So far, Flash architectures have always been based on "floating gate," where the information is stored by injecting electrons in a piece of polysilicon surrounded by oxide. On the contrary, emerging concepts are based on "charge trap" cells. In summary, flash memory devices represent the largest landscape of storage devices, and we expect more advancements in the coming years. This will require a lot of innovation in process technology, materials, circuit design, flash management algorithms, Error Correction Code and, finally, system co-design for new applications such as AI and security enforcement.Technology: general issuesbicssc3D flash memory3D NAND Flash3D NAND Flash memories3D NAND flash memoryaluminum oxideartificial neural networkdipoledisturbanceeffective work functionenduranceerase performanceerror correction codeFlash memory reliabilityflash signal processinggarbage collectionhigh-khigh-κinterfacial reactioninterferencemetal gateMHONOSn/aNAND flash memorynon-volatile memory (NVM)nonvolatile charge-trapping memoryNOR flash memoryperformance cliffprogramrandom telegraph noiserandomization schemeraw bit errorRBERread disturbreliabilityretention characteristicSiO2solid-state drivesstack engineeringsupport vector machinetail latencyTechnology Computer Aided Design (TCAD) simulationtemperaturetest platformwork functionTechnology: general issuesZambelli Cristianedt1287871Micheloni RinoedtZambelli CristianothMicheloni RinoothBOOK9910557617103321Flash Memory Devices3020506UNINA03639nam 2200985z- 450 991055764800332120210501(CKB)5400000000044973(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68840(oapen)doab68840(EXLCZ)99540000000004497320202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierChallenges and Opportunities for the Renewable Energy EconomyBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 online resource (166 p.)3-03936-473-1 3-03936-474-X Renewable energy deployment as an alternative to traditional energy sources is the cornerstone of the emission-reduction energy policies that aim to facilitate the transition to a low-carbon economy. This transition poses risks and opportunities for companies with business models that rely directly or indirectly on renewables, which will be reflected in the revaluation of assets and in the reallocation of private and public financial investments from carbon-intensive to low-carbon energies. In a series of selected articles, this book addresses current challenges and opportunities for renewable energies from technological, economic and financial perspectives.Research & information: generalbicsscagent-based simulationbalancing marketCapital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)carbon tradingchilled waterclean development mechanismcoevolutioncold energyconditional quantilescopulasD subsidyday-ahead marketdryingeconomic and environment feasibilityeconomyelectricityenergy conversionenergy efficiencyenergy marketenergy planningentry regulationenvironmental efficiencyethanol mandateforecast uncertaintygate closuregenetic algorithmglobal heat productionhistory-friendly modelinterdependenceliquefied natural gaslow carbonlow-carbon economyMalaysiaMatlab optimization toolboxModern Portfolio Theory (MPT)palm oil producerpattern searchproduction subsidypumped hydro storageR&ampregasificationrenewable energyrenewable energy deploymentrenewablessimulated annealingsolar energysustainable developmentSustainable Development Goals (SDGs)sustainable processingtechno economicthe fuel ethanol industrythe MATREM systemwind farmwind power forecastResearch & information: generalReboredo Juan Carlosedt1328637Reboredo Juan CarlosothBOOK9910557648003321Challenges and Opportunities for the Renewable Energy Economy3038757UNINA
