Content

In this course you will gain knowledge regarding applications of nanoelectronics in a wide range of areas. You will understand how devices may be realized and modelled for applications beyond CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor). An example of this is the integration of heterogeneous materials in transistors which may be used to reduce the power consumptions in circuit applications. The majority of knowledge in this course will stem from the areas of nanotechnology and circuit design. We will discuss the use of nanowires and nanotubes, emphasizing different device technologies with potential to reduce power consumption. Furthermore, challenges in the Thz region will be discussed.
