Nanotechnology applications to telecommunications and networking

Be a part of the nanotechnology revolution in telecommunications

This book provides a unique and thought-provoking perspective on how nanotechnology is poised to revolutionize the telecommunications, computing, and networking industries. The author discusses emerging technologies as well as technologies under development that will lay the foundation for such innovations as:

• Nanomaterials with novel optical, electrical, and magnetic properties

• Faster and smaller non-silicon-based chipsets, memory, and processors

• New-science computers based on Quantum Computing

• Advanced microscopy and manufacturing systems

• Faster and smaller telecom switches, including optical switches

• Higher-speed transmission phenomena based on plasmonics and other quantum-level phenomena

• Nanoscale MEMS: micro-electro-mechanical systems
