Because of power, energy, and cost reasons, a further development of big data and mobility applications as well as the Intern ... et of Things requires continued Power-Performance-Area-and-Cost (PPAC, formerly More Moore) scaling. This leads to a paradigm change towards the 3D sequential integration of nanosized structures. Regarding simulation, we face the situation that classical continuum tools are not sufficient any more for the nano world and the very low temperature processes required for 3D sequential integration. To overcome the insufficient state of models and tools for the simulation of low-temperature processing of high-mobility layers like silicon-germanium alloys, dedicated experimental investigations are performed for solid-phase epitaxial regrowth, epitaxial deposition, and nanosecond laser annealing. Model development is carried out, based on the KMC and LKMC tools of Sentaurus Process, complemented by model development with own tools. In the end we will have a complete calibrated toolchain which is able to simulate the processes for 3D sequential integration of nanoscaled devices. This will allow continuing further on the success story of the use of TCAD for the early development of the next generations of unconventional nanoscaled electron devices.
