Nanoelectronics and Nanosystems

"The book gives an easy introduction to nanoelectronics for electronic engineers, computer scientists and physicists. The overview covers all aspects from technologies to circuits and systems. The challenge of nanoelectronics is not only to manufacture tiny structures but also to develop innovative systems which allow the billions of devices to become effective.

On a system level, various architectures are presented and important features of systems, such as design strategies, processing power, and reliability are discussed. Many technologies are presented including molecular devices, quantum electronics devices, resonant tunnelling devices, single electron devices, superconducting devices, and even devices for DNA and quantum computing.

The book includes a comparison to the present state of silicon technologies, a discussion on the limits of electronics, and a vision of future nanosystems."--Jacket.
