Biography
Shinichi Takagi has driven performance improvements in metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) technology with his insight on behavior of carriers in semiconductor devices. Dr. Takagi’s “universal mobility model” has been a key enabler of the continued scaling of electronic components. First presented in 1988, his model has provided a common framework for understating the transport mobility of carriers in the MOSFET inversion layer. The model has become a world standard highly cited in research and an important component of device simulators. His work on subband engineering of inversion layers focusing on strained silicon MOSFETs has important implications for sub-100-nanometer technology nodes. Dr. Takagi is also among the pioneers investigating higher-mobility materials such as germanium that will help the continued scaling of MOSFET devices when silicon technologies reach their scaling limits.
