A Guide to the Future of Nanoelectronics

Edited by Bernd Hoefflinger ...

Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
The chips in present-day cell phones already contain billions of sub-100-nanometer transistors. By 2020, however, we will see systems-on-chips with trillions of 10-nanometer transistors. But this will be the end of the miniaturization, because yet smaller transistors, containing just a few control atoms, are subject to statistical fluctuations and thus no longer useful. We also need to worry about ... Read more
