Advanced Nanoelectronics

With a focus on cutting-edge research, this book covers advanced nanoelectronics concepts, state-of-the-art techniques for nanodevice modeling and simulation, and applications of these models in science and engineering. The text first introduces the basic concepts to help you understand nanostructures and nanotransistors, including nanoquantum fundamentals. It then discusses in detail nanodevice characteristics and nanoscale device models. It also presents an extensive discussion of carbon nanotubes, graphene nanoribbons, silicon nanowire, and strained technology. The book ends with a look at the challenges that face the commercialization of nanoelectronics.
