Device scaling has dominated the advancement of silicon device technology for the last three decades ensuring a performance gain of approximately 35% per technology generation. We are now entering an era in which simple device scaling is limited by chip power and manufacturing constraints. The papers in this issue describe solutions in device design and material research required to continue the performance trend. The implementation of silicon technology with low voltage operation or three-dimensional integration is also discussed.
