Session 16 overview: Emerging technologies enabling next-generation systems: Technology directions subcommittee

New materials and technologies are opening exciting possibilities for next-generation systems and applications. These novel technologies may enable new form factors or new sensing modalities, or they may lead to lower power consumption or high voltage switching efficiencies, which cannot be achieved using existing standard CMOS processes. The papers in this session give insight into the latest advances in these emerging technologies, and offer a valuable overview of the systems and applications, which may enter the mainstream in the near future.
