Reviews
This book provides research information pertaining to nanoelectronic concepts, focusing on modeling and simulation of various nanodevices while developing and applying numerical algorithms to investigate devices. The book begins by clearly explaining key quantum-mechanical concepts. Some very useful background [is] covered. ... The remainder of the book covers various aspects of theory and modeling of carbon and graphene nanotube transistors, silicon nanowires, ZnO transistors, and strained silicon transistors. ... An interesting comparison is made between a SPICE circuit model and a quantum theory model used to illustrate the different results and to show why traditional circuit analysis will not yield the correct model. ... There are MATLAB programs in the appendix for all the different models discussed in the book. The book ends with discussion on the technical and economic challenges that face commercialization of nanoelectronics and what universities, industries, and government can do to lower the barriers to success. This is an essential resource for the researchers and scientists working on advanced nanoelectronics. It provides state-of-the-art technical and scientific information on key areas of the most promising nanoelectronic devices being developed today. -IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine, March/April 2014 Reviewer: John J.
