Nanotechnology for electronics & photonics

In the area of electronics, continued evolution of nano-electronics beyond the scaling limits of Moore’s law for Si-CMOS technology is an urgent quest that requires broad thinking across multiple disciplines. Issues of quantum fluctuations and energy dissipation are among some of the major challenges. There is consensus that new developments of nano-electronics must ensure compatibility with Si-CMOS technology because it is unlikely to find one alternative system that can completely replace all aspects of Si-CMOS technology
