With recent advances in reverse engineering, attackers can reconstruct a netlist to counterfeit chips by opening the die and scanning all layers of authentic chips. This relatively easy counterfeiting is made possible by the use of the…

Due to increasing numbers of product piracy worldwide, a cost-effective method for verifying the origin of a product is to be developed. For this purpose, a certificate of authenticity can be created using precisely measurable, unique…

It is now widely accepted that the CMOS technology implementing irreversible logic will hit a scaling limit beyond 2016, and that the increased power dissipation is a major limiting factor. Reversible computing can potentially require…

To reduce the cost of ICs and to meet the market's demand, a considerable portion of manufacturing supply chain, including silicon fabrication, packaging and testing may be pushed offshore. Utilizing a global IC manufacturing supply chain,…

Nanomechanical circuits for transverse acoustic waves promise to enable new approaches to computing, precision biochemical sensing and many other applications. However, progress is hampered by the lack of precise control of the coupling…

With current tools and technology, someone who has physical access to a chip can extract the detailed layout of the integrated circuit (IC). By using advanced visual imaging techniques, reverse engineering can reveal details that are meant…
