Leaders in the field of microelectronics predict the future of the industry

Future Trends in Microelectronics: The Nano, the Giga, and the Ultra offers a revealing look at the future of the microelectronics industry as envisioned by today′s top experts in the field. A brainchild of the Fourth International FTM Workshop, an elite forum for the informal exchange of microelectronics research and ideas, the book brings together the collective expertise of professionals from the fields of industry, academia, and government.

In an unrestrained look at today′s hot topics and trends, the book is divided into three parts:

• Part 1 discusses the future of the dominant silicon technology in the nano age, including ultimate silicon device structures, their applications, and the various technological roadblocks
• Part 2 covers alternate materials and technologies, from spintronics to molecular electronics to polymer and superconductor electronics that may find a role in mainstream technology when silicon reaches its limits
• Part 3 describes cutting–edge successes and novelties in the laser field, with particular emphasis on the rapidly developing terahertz sources and applications

Engineering professionals, researchers, and policymakers alike will benefit from this insightful and forthright assessment of the future of microelectronics. Timely identification of the plausible scenarios for tomorrow presents a tremendous opportunity for constructive action today.
