H.-S. Philip Wong
Biography
H.-S. Philip Wong has made fundamental contributions to advanced semiconductor device concepts and their implementation. His research has advanced silicon CMOS scaling, carbon electronics, and nonvolatile memory and has influenced the R&D industry. He pioneered the concept of using channel geometry and multiple-gate electrodes to control short-channel effects and enable transistor scaling to nanometer scale. Wong demonstrated the first nanosheet transistor, pointing the way to device scaling beyond what was considered possible. His innovations transformed the carbon nanotube as a model system for studies of low-dimensional physics into an emerging product technology. Major academic and industrial activities and investments have benefitted from his work on nonvolatile memory modeling and phenomenological understanding.
An IEEE Fellow, Wong is the Willard R. and Inez Kerr Bell Professor at the School of Engineering, Stanford University, Stan-ford, California, USA
