Short course II - A Nanodevices & circuit

The article consists of a Powerpoint presentation on Nanodevices & circuits. The paper concludes that the Nanoelectronics will certainly be evolutionary, and may be revolutionary. Complex applications require a systematic, robust and reproducible framework that requires a number of properties across scales. Logic applications will require 3-D structures and non-Manhattan layouts. Multiplexing schemes to manage the interconnect pitch transformation from nano-to microscale require real estate. Charge-based devices at nanoscale have inherent power dissipation problems.Other approaches, spin-based or photon-based or others, need to demonstrate size scale, gain and ability to transform signal to charge and vice versa for connection to the external world.
