Abstract
Molecular Field-Coupled Nanocomputing (MolFCN) represents a revolutionary approach to computational technology, exploiting single molecules for encoding and processing logical information. MolFCN permits zero-current logical operations to achieve ultra-low power and hyper-miniaturized computing units. This perspective article explores the current state and future potential of MolFCN, highlighting recent technological advancements, potential applications, and the significant challenges that lie ahead. Despite the challenges, the pathway to practical implementation holds significant promise, with obstacles such as scalability, stability, integration, and practical considerations offering opportunities for innovation and advancement. MolFCN can shape the future of nanocomputing and contribute to current major challenges in nanoelectronics by opening key research directions.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
