About
I am Jarred (Jonghun) Shin, a third-year undergraduate in the School of Electronics Engineering at Kyungpook National University, majoring in Advanced Semiconductor Convergence. My focus is semiconductor devices and process. In a semiconductor device lab I work on TCAD simulation of NAND flash memory. My long-term goal is to work in the U.S. semiconductor industry.

- ProjectHow one grain boundary changes a capacitorless DRAM cellIn simulation, a single grain boundary in the poly-Si channel cut the sensing margin of a 1T-DRAM cell by 27%, close to the 25% reported in the literature.
- ActivityTutor and buddy for international studentsHelp international students at Kyungpook National University settle into classes and daily life, in Korean and English.
- ResearchProgramming a NAND flash string in TCAD, from FN tunneling to hot-carrier injectionBuilt a 7-gate SONOS NAND string in Sentaurus, got program, erase and ISPP working with FN tunneling, and am now reproducing a published hot-carrier programming scheme on it.
- EducationSK hynix Semiconductor Curriculum, 5th cohortSelected for the self-nomination track of SK hynix's semiconductor education programme, covering memory devices, fabrication, packaging, reliability and metrology.
- ProjectDesigning an 8×8 SRAM from the cell upA 64-bit 6T SRAM with precharge, row decoder, write drivers and sense amplifiers; all 64 cells pass write-then-read in simulation.
