Leti Workshop on Innovative Memory Technologies to Include Presentations by STMicroelectronics, Numonyx, Hewlett-Packard and Hanyang University

GRENOBLE, France--(Business Wire)--
Leti, a leading global research center committed to creating and commercializing
innovation in micro - and nanotechnologies, is hosting a workshop on innovative
memory technologies at MINATEC during Minatec Crossroads`10 events on Monday,
June 21.

The workshop will explore the latest achievements in semiconductor memory
technologies. Topics will range from short-term to long-term memory solutions,
including:

* Floating-gate, charge-trap non-volatile memories for embedded or stand-alone
applications.
* Resistive memory technologies such as phase-change memories and oxide-based
memories.
* Three-dimensional integration approaches to increase memory density
* Innovative ideas covering thin-film memories, molecular memories, bio-inspired
memories and new architectures.

The workshop also will feature presentations by leaders in the global memory
industry: STMicroelectronics, Numonyx, HP and Hanyang University.

The workshop is part of the 3rd Minatec Crossroads`10 June 21-25. For more

CEA is a French technological research public organisation, with activities in
three main areas: low carbon energies, technologies for information and
healthcare, and defence and security. Leti, a CEA laboratory located in
Grenoble, is one of the main European applied research centers in electronics.
More than 85% of its activity is devoted to industrial research with 350
contracts a year. Since its creation in 1967, Leti has led to the creation of
more than 30 start-ups in high-technology. The main areas of activity are micro-
and nano-technologies for microelectronics (more Moore, More than Moore and
Beyond CMOS), technologies, design and integration of microsystems, photonics
and imaging technologies, micro- and nano-technologies for biology and health,
communication technologies and nomadic objects. Leti operates with an annual
budget of 200 M€ and employs 1,000 people with, in addition, more than 600
external collaborators (postgraduates, research and corporate partners). Leti
has 8,000m² of clean rooms, an equipment portfolio worth 200 M€ and invests more
than 40 M€ a year on new equipment. Leti has a dynamic Intellectual Property
policy and has filed more than 250 new patent applications in 2008. For more
