Abstract
A comprehensive survey of nanotechnologies' impact not only the semiconductor
market but also its influence on consumer electronics from mobile phones to
MP3 players. This 313-page report gives a definitive overview of the full
spectrum of the electronics industry and how nanotechnologies are being, and
will continue to be, applied, providing timelines of adoption and market size
forecasts. Over 170 tables, figures and charts illuminate the complex
connections between technology and product that allude much of the hype
surrounding nanotechnology' s role in the electronics industry. While molecular
memories or IBM' s still-to-be-commercialized Millipede technology have been
touted as revolutionizing the electronics industry, it has been the
applications of basic science such as the nanometer thin films enabling GMR
(Giant Magneto Resistance) that has provided the iPods we use today.
