We also detail our vision of beyond-MOSFET future transistors and potential innovation opportunities. We focus our evaluation on identifying the most promising sub-10-nanometre-gate-length MOSFETs based on the knowledge derived from previous scaling efforts, as well as the research efforts needed to make the transistors relevant to future logic integrated-circuit products. Here we present a comprehensive assessment of the existing and future CMOS technologies, and discuss the challenges and opportunities for the design of FETs with sub-10-nanometre gate length based on a hierarchical framework established for FET scaling. However, the downscaling of transistors while keeping the power consumption low is increasingly challenging, even for the state-of-the-art fin field-effect transistors. Driven by the requirements for higher speed, energy efficiency and integration density of integrated-circuit products, in the past six decades the physical gate length of MOSFETs has been scaled to sub-20 nanometres. ![]() Similar techniques can be used to improve the sound of an auditorium if electronic amplification is being used signals from the microphones can be delayed or modified to provide a better interaction with the room acoustics.The metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), a core element of complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology, represents one of the most momentous inventions since the industrial revolution. Commercial software is also available, for example Room EQ Wizard. The following two videos explain in detail one way reverb can be added to a recorded signal to make it sound like it was recorded somewhere other than a studio: Altiverb web site and The 3-D Audio and Applied Acoustics (3D3A) Laboratory at Princeton University web site. One example is adding in reverberation to make the recording sound more natural, as if it were recorded in a concert hall instead of a studio. Sometimes electronics and software are used to intentionally modify a signal to make it sound different, as mentioned in Chapter 16. If the phase of the output wave is not the same as the input source there is phase distortion in the output. Amplifiers also can have this problem depending on how they are constructed. We have already mentioned that microphones do not produce a current with the same phase of the original sound. Or it may not be able to react fast enough to amplify the high frequencies accurately. For example, the amplifier may be able to amplify high frequencies better than low frequencies. Most amplifiers (and microphones and speakers!) do not treat all frequencies the same. ![]() Harmonic distortion also occurs if different frequency ranges are amplified by different amounts (in any part of the recording to playback sequence), even if the amplitude is not flattened. This type of distortion is called harmonic distortion. These new harmonics change the sound produced by the amplifier/speaker system. We know from Fourier analysis (Chapter 9) that the sudden change from a smooth curve to a flat top requires many extra harmonics to describe the new wave. When there is amplitude distortion the effect of flattening the top of the output wave when it reaches the speaker is to introduce unwanted overtones. The amplified signal will not sound right because the volume doesn't increase the way it was suppose to in the original recording. ![]()
