Emerging Nanoelectronics Life With and After CMOS

Emerging Nanoelectronics: Life with and after CMOS contains material and envisioned evolutions concerning limits forseen for CMOS technology, single electron devices and circuits, hybrid CMOS-SET circuit architecture and other novel devices and circuits operating with a few electrons. An engineering, practical point of view is systematically followed. Topics include: Volume 1 * Fundamental CMOS Scaling Limits - Bio-Nanotechnology Volume 2 * Few Electron Devices - Millipede Nanotechnology for Data Storage Volume 3 * Nano-Scale Circuits and Architectures - Nanophotonics Emerging Nanoelectronics: Life with and after CMOS is written for students, researchers and professionals of engineering and science, practicing engineers, physicists and venture capitalists. "This book will give you a wonderful overview and state of the art of the many possible options, which exist to extend microelectronics into nanoelectronics. I firmly believe that even though standard planar CMOS will eventually hit the wall, we will find solutions to take us another 30 years down the road, and lead to equally impressive achievements. This is an exciting time with many promising alternative solutions. Many new ideas and even a few old ones are being put on the table, researched, contemplated and prototyped. In the following pages you can read about these new developments in nanoelectronics." Christopher Wasshuber, Texas Instruments "..very well organized to provide insights in a seamless transition, from yesterday's micro-electronics, to tomorrow's nano-electronics--invaluable for graduate students and professionals." ....Shekhar Borkar, Intel Fellow ''The editors have pulled together an exceptional collection of papers that provides a broad perspective on where electronics technology is, what the issues are, and that identifies the promise that exists.'' ....Professor Mark Lundstrom, Purdue University ''A timely and useful compendium of reference papers on nanoelectronics.'' ....Chenming Hu, CTO, TSMC "A timely collection of seminal papers in the nanoelectronics area." ....H.-S.
