Fabrication of Integrated Circuits

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!
