Nanoelectronics & Its Industrial Applications Program Nano Science & Technology Consortium What is Nanoelectronics ? Nanoelectronics is one of the major technologies of Nanotechnology. It plays vital role in the field of engineering and electronics. Nanoelectronics make use of scientific methods at atomic scale for developing the Nano machines. The main target is to reduce the size, risk factor and surface areas of the materials and molecules. Machines under nano electronic process undergoes the long range of manufacturing steps each with accurate molecular treatment. Nano Science & Technology Consortium What is Nanoelectronics ?-Contd. The Nanotechnology field has been the subject of intense focus, particularly from the viewpoint of the electronics industry. The commitment is, no doubt, driven to a large measure by the current topdown methodologies for fabrication of silicon-based devices. This is implied in the next-generation approach towards manufacture of MEMS, microprocessors, optical switching and several other electronic components. Nanotechnology is expected to bring about improvisation in deposition, implantation, lithography and metrology, thus supporting scaling up of silicon CMOS and is eventually expected to replace CMOS. Nano Science & Technology Consortium Advantages of Nanoelectronics One of the obvious advantage is that Nanoelectronics reduces size and scale of the machine with the help of complex integration on the circuit silicon chips. Advanced properties of semiconductors can be determined with the help of Nanoelectronics. Molecular scale Nanoelectronics is also known as “the next step” in the miniaturization of electronic devices, with latest electronics theory and research in the field of nanoelectronics, it is possible to explore the diverse properties of molecules. Extreme fabrication also supported the multiple use of single machine. Parallel processing is also empowered by Nanoelectronics. Nano Science & Technology Consortium Industrial Applications & World Market Nanotechnology is continually playing vital role to improve the capability of electronic products. The technology also made the devices very light making the product easy to carry or move and at the same time it has reduced the power requirement. Some Consumer Products which are using Nanotechnology: •Computer Hardware • Display Devices • Mobile & Communication Products • Audio Products • Camera & Films The world market for nanoelectronics is expected to reach $409.6 billion by 2015.
