WHAT IS NANOTECHNOLOGY?
Nanotechnology

deals with the study of

Materials of size 10-9 m.

The

materials in nanometer scale posses novel

properties such as high efficiency &
capacity than the normal materials.

WHAT IS NANO CIRCUITRY?

Nanocircuitry

deals with minimization of circuit

size to nano scale.
It helps the scientists & engineers in reduction
of the size of computers & other electronic
devices.
The age of nanocircuitary begins with the
invention of nanotransistors & ultra capacitors.

MOORES LAW:
moores law states that,the
speed of the computer will be
doubled in every 18 to 24
months.
This is made possible by
increasing the number of
transistors fitted into a circuit.

ULTRA-CAPACITORS

CAPACITORS ARE ENERGY SAVING

DEVICES.
THEY CONSIST OF TWO TERMINALS
EACH STORE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE
CHARGES.
THE ULTRA CAPACITORS ARE MADE
FROM CARBON NANO TUBES.
THEY HAVE HIGH
RELIABILITY,COMPACTNESS.

TRANSISTORS:
Transistors

are the devices that forms the

integral parts of the circuit.
Transistors converts the weak signals into
stronger signals.
To convert the transistors to nano scale we
are in need of switch on to carbon base
instead of silicon.

HUGE SIZE TO NANO-CIRCUITS

CARBON NANOTUBES
CARBON

NANO TUBES ARE THE BASIC

BUILDING BLOCKS OF NANO CIRCUITS.

COMPOSED OF C-40 ATOMS.

THEY ARE PATENTED BY IBM.
THEY ARE

LATEST NANOPRODUCTS
I-POD

NANO developed by
apple in 2007.
Processors developed by IBM
&VIA technologies.

RISKS:
The

electronics scientists need to develop new

circuits to cope with nano circuits working with
carbon nanotubes .
The transistors will be 100 times smaller than
the thickness of human hair so it is difficult to
identify the problems in it.
The ultracapacitors produces high heat, till
today there is no remedy given to cool it.

OTHER APPLICATIONS OF
NANOCOMPUTING:

DISPLAYS
QUANTUM

COMPUTERS
