Features: This book can serve as a textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in related fields such as Electronic Science and Technology, Microelectronics, Applied Physics, Electronic Engineering, and Materials Science in higher education institutions. It is also suitable for scientists, engineers, and faculty in relevant disciplines. Nanoelectronics is an important component of the emerging discipline of nanoscience and technology. It represents the development trend of microelectronics and will become the foundation of next-generation electronic science and technology. The content of this book is divided into three parts. The first part systematically elaborates on the fundamental concepts and theories of nanoelectronics. The main topics include the physical limits and technological barriers of modern integrated circuits, new phenomena in nanoscale structures (Chapter 1), nanoelectronic structures and their electronic states (Chapter 2), and transport theory in nanoelectronic devices (Chapter 3). The second part introduces electronic devices at the nanoscale, including resonant tunneling devices (Chapter 4), single-electron devices (Chapter 5), quantum dot devices (Chapter 6), and nanoscale CMOS devices (Chapter 7). The third part discusses the theory and applications of electrical noise, which significantly affects the performance of nanodevices (Chapter 8). The book emphasizes the explanation of new concepts and phenomena, as well as the integration of qualitative descriptions with quantitative theoretical formulations.
