Abstract :
In the quest for new semiconductor materials and processes, researchers focus on self-assembly, a concept that draws from diverse disciplines like chemistry, biology, material science, and electrical engineering. The following areas are examined: information theory; thermodynamics, synergetics and self-assembly; ribosome based lithography; nanofabrication by self-assembly; molecular electronics; and smart matter
