Scientists have developed molecular devices that can switch roles, behaving as memory, logic, or learning elements within the ...

Tiny molecules that can think, remember, and learn may be the missing link between electronics and the brain. For more than ...

For more than 50 years, scientists have sought alternatives to silicon for building molecular electronics. The vision was ...

As electronic devices continue to get smaller and smaller, physical size limitations are beginning to disrupt the trend of doubling transistor density on silicon-based microchips approximately every ...

In January, 2022, – The first molecular electronics chip was developed. This achieved a 50-year-old goal of integrating single molecules into circuits to achieve the ultimate scaling limits of Moore’s ...

Scientists from Indian Institute of Science (IISc) reported an advance in the long quest to move electronics beyond silicon, ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science have created adaptable molecular devices that can function as memory units, ...

Scientists have long dreamed of making molecular electronics, building one-dimensional strings atom by atom to create new circuits even smaller than today’s tiniest silicon structures. Shrinking ...

Molecular and organic electronics encompasses the study and application of devices in which organic molecules and polymers not only serve as the functional material but also actively conduct, emit, ...

The atomic switch operates by forming and breaking a tiny silver filament inside a thin film of tantalum oxide. When a positive voltage is applied, silver atoms move to create a conductive bridge ...

University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign researchers report a unique strategy for controlling molecular conductance by using molecules with rigid backbones – such as ladder-type molecules, known as ...
