Chapter 362: Shocking

For the first time, the TPC, the Standing Committee of the conference, accepted researchers from the mainland of the Republic as members to participate in the review of papers in the field of semiconductor electronics research from all over the world.

In fact, the main task of this TPC is to score the submitted papers around the world, and decide which papers can be discussed at the ISSCC conference through internal voting, and the technical research direction of any paper that can be discussed at the ISSCC conference will largely determine and influence the direction of technology research and development in the industry and academia in the next period.

As for how awesome ISSCC is, it's hard to feel the awesomeness of this just from its original name.

But it doesn't matter, you just need to know that it is the highest-level conference in the field of integrated circuit design recognized by the global semiconductor academic and business circles, and it is the "World Olympic Conference" in the field of integrated circuit design.

From this, it is natural to understand how awesome the conference is and how high its quality level is.

The reason why this time we are willing to accept scientists from the mainland to ascend to the sky, enter the TPC, and become referees together with many scientific research bigwigs in the industry is that the CMOS optical sensor technology made by Professor Bai Siwen is too vigorous, and almost single-handedly supports the practical and industrialization of the technology.

In fact, as early as 85 years, Wang Zhengguo has been supporting Professor Bai Siwen to make a paper on some technologies in CMOS optical sensors, and directly submit them to ISSCC.

Obviously, after several years of hard work, the CMOS sensor researched by Professor Bai Siwen was not noticed at the beginning, and then gradually attracted attention until the first photoelectric mouse made of CMOS sensor was put on sale.

Finally, the arrogant ISSCC realized the importance of CMOS optical sensors and recognized them as another practical digital optical sensor solution in addition to CCD technology.

In the '88 TPC review, the committee decided to focus on CMOS optical sensors as the key technology discussed at the ISSCC conference that year, believing that it was a sign of the large-scale popularization of digital optical sensors.

In view of the fact that only Professor Bai Siwen is an academic champion in the world of CMOS optical sensors, he is naturally the first Chinese microelectronics scientist in the world to propose the CMOS semiconductor structure, and with the full support of Sa Zhitang, an academician of the American Academy of Engineering, Bai Siwen has directly become a rare "firing line to join the party" cadre in TPC.

Speaking of this academician Sa Zhitang, it is the existence of the Chinese semiconductor practitioners.

Since 1956, he has been engaged in solid-state electronics research with Dr. Shockley, and then worked for Fairchild from 1959 to 1964, and the "Eight Traitors of Fairchild" in the semiconductor industry were also under Shockley in 56.

The reason why people later publicized the Eight Traitors of Fairchild was because when he founded Fairchild, Sa Zhitang did not join immediately, he continued to work in the Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory, so of course there was no academician Sa Zhitang in the list of founders of Fairchild.

But it didn't work, and soon even the eight traitors reacted, and they also joined Shockley's fresh graduate Sazhitang that year. The man had a technology that none of their eight Fairchild founders had: the MOS transistor manufacturing process.

You must know that during his later tenure at Fairchild, he led a research group of 64 people to conduct research on the manufacturing process of the first generation of silicon-based diodes, MOS transistors and integrated circuits, and was a well-deserved pioneer in the semiconductor industry.

One thing you must know is that at this time, Fairchild Semiconductor Company only had more than 100 employees, and this also includes production personnel and management personnel engaged in production.

It is no exaggeration to say that Sachttang had a better technical status in Fairchild Semiconductor in his early years than the eight so-called geniuses, and if you don't believe it, you can casually go and see who among the eight traitors won the honor of academician of the American Academy of Engineering.

Even the inventor of the integrated circuit, Noyce, the reason why this guy got the patent of the inventor of the integrated circuit was because he robbed the company's R&D personnel Gene Honey from the idea of becoming the so-called inventor, but the ridiculous inventor of the integrated circuit is not an academician of the American Academy of Engineering, which has to make people hehe.....

The so-called eight traitors, but a group of disobedient and entrepreneurial teenagers stand at the forefront of the times, maybe there are indeed a few talents in it, but to say that these are all technical bulls, it is better to say that they are lucky speculators, they are compared to the cattle people like Sazhitang who really rely on technology to support the fairy child, it is really incomparable.

Under the deliberate propaganda of the business community and the media, the eight traitors later became the pioneers of semiconductor integrated circuits, but this was just to fool the public and shareholders.

What is really seen in the academic community is personal strength and scientific research achievements, so Sa Zhitang is an academician, he can make a strong voice in the ISSCC, and he can support Professor Bai Siwen to enter the TPC without anyone objecting, which is the authoritative force of the academic community!

In fact, before Professor Bai Siwen, not to mention the mainland, there were almost no people in the whole of Asia except Japan who were able to publish papers at the ISSCC, and as for the TPC, there were no papers in the whole of Asia, and the so-called South Korea and Duwan Province were only temporarily emerging in the ISSCC after 2000.

As a Chinese-American, Academician Sazhitang was the first American scientist to carry out scientific and technological cooperation and exchanges with the Republic after the reform and opening up.

Bai Siwen was indeed lucky to be able to enter the TPC, mainly because at this time, Academician Sazhitang was elected as an academician of the American Academy of Engineering for less than two years, which was the time when his influence was at its peak, and he happened to be the inventor of the CMOS structure, and the republic had a good relationship with European and American countries at this time, so he had the opportunity to enter it and become a referee.

If two years earlier, the heat is not enough, and two years later, the international trend will no longer be there, and it is impossible to have the opportunity to send Professor Bai Siwen to the TPC, let alone sit on the referee throne in one fell swoop, which is really beautiful.

Wang Zhengguo's heart at this time did not know how to vent his excitement, the republic finally issued its own voice in the international semiconductor integrated circuit industry, like a loud baby crying, from then on announced that the Chinese in the semiconductor industry really began to have their own one-third of an acre.

"Okay, Professor Bai is good, TPC reviewer, or the focus of this year's scheduled ISSCC discussion, I know that there is nothing wrong with our CMOS optical sensor technology route, hurry up and draft the document, the fifth academician of our foundation has been released!"

Standing in front of the window, looking up at the desolate scenery outside, Wang Zhengguo felt joy and excitement that he had never felt before, the cold winter has arrived, will spring be far away?

Even the secretary who drafted the document was infected by this atmosphere, and excitedly wrote several documents in a row, but he still couldn't calm his heart, maybe this is the best interpretation of honor.
