Nanoscale devices
The research, technology and applications driving
the growth of nanoelectronics are considered in Nanoelectronics Principles and
Devices. The 438-page book brings together the fields of solid-state physics,
quantum mechanics, chemistry, biology and electronics, which are converging in the
development of the technology. It covers the design and simulation of the devices,
as well as innovative tools, such as atomic force, scanning tunneling and scanning
near optical field microscopes. Advances in molecular and biological devices are
detailed. Sections cover the integration of bio- and nanodevices, molecular-based
optic and optoelectronic devices, and the characterization and manipulation of molecular
systems, including measurement techniques for molecular conduction. Charts, diagrams,
references and an index are provided. Mircea Dragoman and Daniela Dragoman; Artech
