Modeling and synthesis of molecular memory

Performance and reliability of nanoscale memory and logic devices is determined by few electron-phenomena. In this context, the organic molecules may offer some advantages for future memory applications. Since, a molecule is the smallest component whose electrical properties can be engineered, it can be argued that the ultimate integrated circuit will be constructed at the molecular level. This fact has been the driving force behind molecular electronics research of recent times. This article investigates the aspects of modeling, synthesis and analysis of nanocell based molecular memory. In our work, we have developed the HSPICE as well as probabilistic models for nanocell based molecular memory. An attempt has been made to develop a CAD tool for synthesis of such molecular memories which are posing interesting and promising research challenges at futuristic cutting edge of technology spectrum.
