The exam consists in two parts. 1) Laboratory reports: The laboratories will require a report on each subject and will be evaluated for the final exam (25%). 2) Oral exam: The oral exam will be on the whole subject (75%). Exam rules - Laboratory reports: A single report describing all the laboratories must be delivered before the end of January. For each of the four laboratories the report must describe the design of the device complete with all the choices done, how the device was implemented within the simulation environment and the results obtained. Laboatory reports are expected to be complete and well presented and connected to the theory analyzed in the lectures. Critical thinking will be especially evaluated. Laboratory reports are evaluated over a maximum score of 30 Lode. -Oral exam: the exam is based on three to six questions on the whole subject. During the oral exam the students will be evaluated based on the following objectives: - Knowledge of the structure and fabrication of advanced MOS devices; - Knowledge of fabrication processes for beyond CMOS systems; - Knowledge of MEMS technology for sensors; - Knowledge of fabrication processes simulations tools and activities carried on during the laboratories. The oral exam is evaluated over a maximum score of 30 Lode. The final mark will be calculated using a weighted sum of the laboratory and oral part.
