Abstract
Interconnects will play a crucial role in the development of the nanoscale integrated circuits. In addition to the development of the nano devices, interconnects that will be used to connect these devices in nanotechnology circuits deserve a very special attention. In this paper, potential technologies for nanoscale circuit interconnects (metallic, nanowires, nanotubes and quantum wires) have been reviewed with emphasis on the carbon nanotube based interconnects which have shown the greatest promise so far.
