DESCRIPTION:As predicted by Gordon Moore more than 40 years ago\, the numbe
 r of transistors able to fit on a computer chip has doubled approximately 
 every 18 months. But if the trend is to continue for the years to come\, i
 t will have to be with technology other than the conventional CMOS design.
  As the size of transistors gets down to the nanoscale\, CMOS devices begi
 n to suffer from several issues\, in particular\, increased resistance\, d
 ecreased channel mobility\, and increased manufacturing costs. To overcome
  the challenges involved with scaling\, researchers from around the world 
 have begun to look for alternatives to CMOS technology. Our recently intro
 duced concept\, called nano-electron-fluidic logic (NFL)\, is based\, not 
 on electron particle transport\, but on the generation\, propagation\, and
  manipulation of surface plasma waves (plasmons) in an electron fluid. NFL
  gates are projected to exhibit femtojoule power dissipation and femtoseco
 nd switching speeds at finite temperatures\, while taking full advantage o
 f established semiconductor manufacturing infrastructure. NFL represents a
  paradigm shift in digital technology\, and is poised as a strong candidat
 e for "beyond-CMOS" digital logic. This talk presents the theory\, physics
  and design principles of NFL.\n\nWaterloo\, Ontario\, Canada

 rs ago\, the number of transistors able to fit on a computer chip has doub
 led approximately every 18 months. But if the trend is to continue for the
  years to come\, it will have to be with technology other than the convent
 ional CMOS design. As the size of transistors gets down to the nanoscale\,
  CMOS devices begin to suffer from several issues\, in particular\, increa
 sed resistance\, decreased channel mobility\, and increased manufacturing 
 costs. To overcome the challenges involved with scaling\, researchers from
  around the world have begun to look for alternatives to CMOS technology. 
 Our recently introduced concept\, called nano-electron-fluidic logic (NFL)
 \, is based\, not on electron particle transport\, but on the generation\,
  propagation\, and manipulation of surface plasma waves (plasmons) in an e
 lectron fluid. NFL gates are projected to exhibit femtojoule power dissipa
 tion and femtosecond switching speeds at finite temperatures\, while takin

 . NFL represents a paradigm shift in digital technology\, and is poised as
  a strong candidate for "beyond-CMOS" digital logic. This talk presents th
