Materials and Devices Using Nanotechnology in Electronics

Author(s): Christopher Adams

The use of nanotechnology in electronic components is referred to as Nano electronics. These parts frequently have a size of just a few nanometres. Electronic components are, however, more difficult to produce the smaller they get. Nano electronics is the study of devices and materials that are so small that physical processes change the properties of the materials on a nanoscale. These devices rely heavily on interatomic interactions and quantum mechanical features to function.
