• Moore's law : describes that the number of transistors that can be placed inexpensively on an integrated circuit has doubled approximately every two years. • Nanotech Devices: Invented to solve the problem of downsizing
NEED AND PROBLEMS:Power consumption challengeshigh performance and high density chip designFaster and more information processing resulting in generating more heat flux
SOLUTION:Reduce the corresponding charge per bit!! THUS
Single-electron Device!!!
WHY NANOTECH DEVICES ?
