The applications of electrochemical technology to microelectronics are expanding rapidly. As the dimensions of the features of microelectronic components have decreased, associated materials effects, interfacial effects, and molecular-scale interactions have become increasingly important for electrochemical metal deposition and removal. The first seven papers in this issue focus on those and other aspects. The issue also includes papers on cache prefetching, logic-based embedded DRAM (eDRAM), and register-renaming mappers for IBM POWER4 processors.
