Features: Nanoelectronics is one of the current international technological frontiers. It is the intersection of nanotechnology and information technology. Especially, the computer the size of a grain of sand, which only existed in imagination in the past, will play a significant role in fields such as defense, communications, security, information storage, automatic control, biomedicine, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing. Based on his over a decade of research experience, the author discusses six potential directions of nanoelectronics, including molecular computers, in an accessible and engaging manner, avoiding the use of complex numbers and advanced theories as much as possible. It is suitable for non-professionals with high school education or above for reference.
