For example, in addition to being supremely fast, optical and photonic components and devices are capable of operating across multiple orders of magnitude length, power, and spectral scales, encompassing the range from macroscopic device sizes and kW energies to atomic domains and single-photon energies. The extreme versatility of the associated electromagnetic phenomena and applications, both classical and quantum, are therefore highly appealing to the rapidly evolving computing and communication realms, where innovations in both hardware and software are necessary to meet the growing speed and memory requirements. Development of all-optical components, photonic chips, interconnects, and processors will bring the speed of light, photon coherence properties, field confinement and enhancement, information-carrying capacity, and the broad spectrum of light into the high-performance computing, the internet of things, and industries related to cloud, fog, and recently edge computing. Conversely, owing to their extraordinary properties, 0D, 1D, and 2D materials are being explored as a physical basis for the next generation of logic components and processors. Carbon nanotubes, for example, have been recently used to create a new processor beyond proof of principle.

  • Carbon Nanotube-Based Three-Dimensional Monolithic Optoelectronic Integrated System
    ARTICLE Received 14 Aug 2016 | Accepted 15 Apr 2017 | Published 8 Jun 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms15649 OPEN Carbon nanotube-based three-dimensional monolithic optoelectronic integrated system Yang Liu1, Sheng Wang2, Huaping Liu3,4 & Lian-Mao Peng1,2 Single material-based monolithic optoelectronic integration with complementary metal oxide semiconductor-compatible signal processing circuits is one of the most pursued approaches in the post-Moore era to realize rapid data communication and functional diversification in a limited three-dimensional space. Here, we report an electrically driven carbon nanotube-based on-chip three-dimensional optoelectronic integrated circuit. We demonstrate that photovoltaic receivers, electrically driven transmitters and on-chip electronic circuits can all be fabricated using carbon nanotubes via a complementary metal oxide semiconductor-compatible low-temperature process, providing a seamless integration platform for realizing monolithic three-dimensional optoelectronic integrated circuits with diversified functionality such as the heterogeneous AND gates. These circuits can be vertically scaled down to sub-30 nm and operates in photovoltaic mode at room temperature. Parallel optical communication between functional layers, for example, bottom-layer digital circuits and top-layer memory, has been demonstrated by mapping data using a 2 Â 2 transmitter/receiver array, which could be extended as the next generation energy-efficient signal processing paradigm. 1 Key Laboratory for the Physics and Chemistry of Nanodevices and Academy for Advanced Interdisciplinary Studies, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China. 2 Key Laboratory for the Physics and Chemistry of Nanodevices and Department of Electronics, Peking University, Beijing 100871, China. 3 Beijing National Laboratory for Condensed Matter Physics, Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China.

Bashiruddin Horned Coot Research in Aesthetic Decors Pvt Ltd, New Delhi, India ABSTRACT Carbon Nano Tubes (CNTs) with their unique electronic and geometric features have emerged as candidates in next generation high-performance nano-electronics application. CNTs have played a significant role in overcoming the challenges of scaling process of traditional silicon/conventional MOS based devices and therefore, carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) based circuit development has been boosted in recent years. The present review encompasses inquisitive assessment of CNTs and its application in designing of CNTFET based circuits in nano-electronics. Recently reported CNTFET based nanoelectronic circuits like three stage operational amplifiers (OP AMP), novel operational trans-conductance amplifier (OTA), universal logic circuits, tristate buffer, Cascode Operational Transconductance Amplifiers (COTA), folded cascode operational transconductance amplifiers (FC- OTAs), Ternary Full Adder Cell and pure CNT based multistage operational amplifier, as well as improvement in their performance parameters (DC gain, output resistance, slew rate, average power, speed and power consumption) as compared to respective MOS based circuits have been extensively reviewed. In order to harness the high quality intrinsic features of CNTs further investigations of nanotube-based- electronics are anticipated and considered as future perspective beyond silicon-based- electronics.

The synaptic behavior of these devices is achieved via charge-trapping effects, commonly observed in carbon-based nanoelectronics. In this work, charge trapping in the high-k dielectric layer of top-gated CNT field-effect transistors (FETs) enables the gradual analog programmability of the CNT channel conductance with a large dynamic range (i.e., large on/off ratio). Aligned CNT synaptic devices present significant improvements over conventional memristor technologies (e.g., RRAM), which suffer from abrupt transitions in the conductance modulation and/or a small dynamic range. Here, we demonstrate exceptional uniformity of aligned CNT FET synaptic behavior, as well as significant robustness and nonvolatility via pulsed experiments, establishing their suitability for neural network implementations. Additionally, this technology is based on a wafer-level technique for constructing highly aligned arrays of CNTs with high semiconducting purity and is fully CMOS compatible, ensuring the practicality of large- scale CNT+CMOS neuromorphic systems. We also demonstrate fine-tunability of the aligned CNT synaptic behavior and discuss its application to adaptive online learning schemes and to homeostatic regulation of artificial neuron firing rates.

  • Nanomanufacturing Processes Using Mechanosynthesis Applications
    NANOMANUFACTURING PROCESSES USING MECHANOSYNTHESIS APPLICATIONS Steven Sullivan NanoSource, Inc. Group Lab 1409 Newport Spring Reston, VA 20194 P: 001.703.726.9370 F: 001.703.904.3907 [email protected] ABSTRACT Quality, production capacity and production cost have been identified as the current barriers to the implementation of carbon nanotubes and nanofibers within the industrial markets and military applications where such materials offer superior performance benefits in a wide range of industries and military applications. Significant use of nanotubes and nanofibers will require substantial increases in production volume coupled with decreases in production cost of < $ 30/Kg. Based on low cost, high-volume, high yield, and ability to highly control diameter, length and chirality, a Mechanosynthesis process was selected as the most viable approach for a scaleable, top down mass manufacturing process of nanoscale structures such as nanoparticles, nanotubes and nanofibers that are continuous. Index Terms-Mechanosynthesis, nanomanufacturing, nanoimprinting, nanofibers, material science. I.INTRODUCTION The challenge from an industrial manufacturing perspective is to translate scientific innovations into productive and cost-effective technology for various applications. Towards this goal, we are working on developing nanomanufacturing methods to manufacture nanomaterials, but unlike fundamental research in this area, a key metric we use to judge nanomanufacturing processes is scalability. Scalability is an important industrial manufacturing consideration wherein design for scalability reduces manufacturing cost and effort. New techniques for patterning and engineering materials at the nanometer scale using Mechanosynthesis processes that are similar to current nanoimprinting processes will make possible the goal of nanometer scale mechanical and electronic devices at cost effective levels of manufacture.

The research groups have succeeded in making molecular level transistors, junction-less transistors, memory transistor (eliminating need for capacitor), trigate transistors (at Intel), faster graphene transistors (at IBM) and organic transistors (NOMFET). There are also attempts to invent technologies for fabrication of nanobased integrated circuits using concept of magnetic dots (at UCLA), nanowires (at Weizmann Institute), carbon nonotubes (at Stanford University). Researchers are working to print nanolevel circuits with inkjet printers using silver ink (at Pennsylvania) and on flexible plastics (at North Carolina State University) which may lead to flexible motherboards, mobiles and laptops. Attempts are also being made for designing nanolevel circuits with less power consumption and faster heat dissipation. Then research groups at West Lafayette and Motorola are working for better displays and monitors with sharper and intense output imaging using Nanowire and Carbon Nanotube technologies. Research groups have also succeeded in improving Random Access Memories MRAM (at University of Illinois, Chicago), MeRAM (at UCLA), NRAM (at Imec and Nantero) and hard disks (Race Track Memory with thousand times more storage capacity) at IBM.

Gabriel3,4 Received: 1 November 2017 / Accepted: 15 December 2018 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a central part of advanced nanomaterials and are used in state-of-the-art technologies, based on their high tensile strength, excellent thermal transfer properties, low-band gaps and optimal chemical and physical stability. Carbon nanotubes are also intriguing given their unique π-electron-rich structures, which opens a variety of possibilities for modifcations and alterations of their chemical and electronic properties. In this review, a comprehensive survey of the meth- ods of solubilization of carbon nanotubes is presented, forming the methodological foundation for synthesis and manufactur- ing of modifed nanomaterials. The methods presented herein show that solubilized carbon nanotubes have a great potential in being applied as reactants and components for advanced solar cell technologies, nanochemical compounds in electronics and as parts in thermal transfer management. An example lies in the preservation of the aromatic chemistry in CNTs and ligation of functional groups to their surfaces, which confers CNTs with an optimal potential as tunable Schottky contacts, or as parts in nanotransistors and nano-resistances. Future nanoelectronic circuits and structures can therefore depend more and more on how carbon nanotubes are modifed and functionalized, and for this, solubilization is often a critical part of their fabrication process. This review is important, is in conjecture with the latest developments in synthesis and modifcation of CNTs, and provides the know-how for developing new CNT-based state-of-the-art technologies, particularly with emphasis on computing, catalysis, environmental remediation as well as microelectronics.
