Nanoelectronics: A Primer

Molecular Nanoelectronics: A future perspective

The conventional VLSI technology based on lithography is reaching its limits and the extension of Moore’s Law for small-scale conventional silicon based integrated circuits is gaining significance. Developments in the area of molecular electronics devices offer an alternative approach to overcome this problem and have the potential to miniaturize the computational devices down to few nm. This i...

Spintronics: A New Nanoelectronics Adventure

Spintronics is a new paradigm for electronics which utilizes the electron's spin in addition to its charge for device functionality. It is a rapidly emerging field of science and technology that will most likely have a significant impact on the future of all aspects of electronics as we continue to move into the 21st century. The primary areas for potential applications are information storage,...

Introduction to NanoElectronics

Prospects of Silicon Nanoelectronics

Silicon technology and nanoelectronics are two important components which will shape the future of the IC industry.
