Nanoelectronics and Nanophotonics Detailed Syllabus for Nano Technology M.Tech first year second sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.
The detailed syllabus for Nanoelectronics and Nanophotonics M.Tech 2017-2018 (R17) first year second sem is as follows.
M.Tech. I Year II Sem.
Course Objective: This course is intended to cover basics of electronics, transistor, band structure models, nanocapacitors, coulomb blockade, single electron transistor and nanophotonics.
Course Outcomes:
- To know nanoelectronics holds the capacity for mass production of high-quality nanodevices with an enormous variety of applications from computers to biosensors, from cell phone to space shuttles and from large display screens to small electronic toys.
- To know the scaling of transistors and other devices to smaller and smaller sizes, which has provided the basis for this exponential growth, has limits, physical (size of the atoms), technological (lithography) and economic, which will be reached by nanoelectronics in the next coming decade.
- In the near future from photonics, molecular electronics or revolutionary engineering solutions, such as departure from two-dimensional ICs on the surface of silicon wafers to three-dimensional structures. All these gigantic challenges and potential nanotechnology solutions are actively debated.
