I don't know of any other institution that provides a fabrication facility to
an undergrad. This course is on the physical theory, design, and fabrication
of devices suitable for integrated circuitry; includes the electrical properties
of semiconductors and techniques (epitaxial growth, oxidation, photolithography
diffusion, ion implantation, metallization, characterization) for fabricating
integrated circuit devices such as p-n junction diodes, bipolar transistors and
field-effect transistors.
The breakdown of the hands-on-experience laboratory work is as follows:
This is a very cool and interesting class.
Too bad it isn't available to everyone.
Here is a project that I did for one of my Electrical Engineering Classes that went into more indepth about gate level design. This project was to design, test, and handin a working 8-Bit Adder Device. Check it out!
