This article seems to assume that the term only refers to exotic materials and devices e.g. SETs, CNTs, Molecular electronics. It even opens up with the bizarre statement that the 22 nm node is not "nanoelectronics", because apparently it doesn't involve quantum mechanics. This would certainly be news to the researchers at Intel or IBM. Even if this was standard usage in the past, it's surely been hijacked by now (for good reason). A google search reveals that research on MOSFETs in modern technology nodes is often referred to as nanoelectronics. |

I'm designing a navbox for nanoelectronics, but I'd like to get some feedback on what the proper organization of all the subarticles should be. Wikipedia's coverage of nanoelectronics topics is kinda sparse at the moment, so it's hard to get a sense of what needs to be included in a navbox. Antony-22 (talk) 19:23, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
- If there are no comments, I will place the navboxes. Antony-22 (talk) 07:02, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
Nanoantennae
Strangely no mention of this topic anywhere in the Nanotech/NanoElectronics pages. There is an island wiki entry Nanoantenna which is just starting to branch into photonic computing. Note especially ref 4 in that article [1] Perhaps both the internal article and the external ref should be brought into the Nanotech/NanoElectronics fold somewhere?
I have also posted this comment on the top Nanotech page as I don't understand the boundaries, and it may be that the Nanoantenna topic has a place in both - as a material in Nanotech and as a photonic tool here. (talk) 09:45, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
Fundamental concepts section needs to be restructured/moved
The Fundamental Concepts section in many places reads more like a criticism of nanotechnology and molecular manufacturing in general, rather than a basic overview of nanoelectronics. It should be cut down to specifically nanoelectronic notions and moved to a criticism section. Some of the material could possibly be included in other articles as well.
In addition, it needs sources. I believe Eric Drexler answered some of the objections it mentions in his debate with Richard Smalley in Scientific American a few years back. It could be brought up to date. 97.119.189.229 (talk) 21:38, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
