BOOK



The rapid growth of the electronics industry can be attributed in

large part to the scalability of the transistor. Continued

scaling of transistor dimensions has enabled increased

functionality with each new generation of integrated circuits

Historically, this scaling has followed Moore's Law - which

became a self-fulfilling prophecy - wherein the number of

transistors on a chip is doubled every 18-24 months. However, a

number of bottlenecks arise beyond c. 2020 that will impede this

progress and this will lead to high heat dissipation in ICs

large power consumption, and low chip yield. Thus, beyond c

2020, the electronics industry needs novel technologies that

enable continued increases in chip functionality. Considering

that the transition from research to manufacturing can take 10

years or more for novel technologies, there is considerable

effort world-wide to identify next-generation enablers for

electronics. Graphene is one of the most promising materials to

replace Silicon, and this book discusses a number of aspects of

graphene for nanoelectronics applications. With the growing

interest in this material, this book serves as a spring-board for

anyone trying to start working on this topic. The book contains

in-depth discussions of graphene properties, transistors, novel

state variables, interconnects, growth, and device

fabrication

* Describes the transport properties of graphene;* Includes a

detailed discussion of alternative state variables such as spin

and excitons;* Provides insight into graphene transistors and

interconnects for both analog and digital electronics;* Presents

the latest advances in graphene growth by various techniques

epitaxial growth, chemical vapor deposition and chemical methods
