5 Device Modeling - Flash Memory Transistor
                                                       Device Modeling - Flash Memory Transistor Contains floating gate not present in traditional MOS transistor Non-Volatile Memory Capability Programming : Apply + Voltage Floating gate fills with electrons Threshold voltage increases No current between source and drain: “Off” State Erasing : Apply - Voltage Electrons flow from floating gate to drain Threshold voltage decreases Current flows: “On” State © S. Joe Qin

6 Modeling and Control Focus
Conventional control problems Process/quality monitoring Process modeling Feedback control output input quality Quality modeling Quality control $ Semiconductor process modeling Batch control geometry recipe Semiconductor control problems Device modeling Fab-wide control $ electrical property © S. Joe Qin

7 Our Research Focus Model Predictive Control and Performance Assessment
Process Monitoring and Fault Diagnosis Model and System Identification Semiconductor, Chemical and Pulp and Paper Processes We interact actively with the members of the Texas-Wisconsin Modeling and Control Consortium which allows us to focus on methodology development that will impact the practice © S.
