learning outcome	The students are introduced to the evolution of micro- and nanoelectronics and of important trends in this field. They become familiar with the design, operation, and relevant figures of merit of nanometer MOSFETs and with the problems of continuing MOSFET scaling. The students are introduced to additional relevant device and material concepts (e.g., nanotube and nanowire transistors, single electron transistors, spin transistors, beyond-transistor devices, two-dimensional materials) and to understand their operation. Moreover, they are enabled to critically assess future trends in nanoelectronics.
content	Evolution of semiconductor electronics from micro to nano. Device structure and operation of classical and advanced non-classical nanometer MOSFETs. MOSFET scaling. Power consumption and self-heating. Nanoelectronic devices for the Post-CMOS era. Moore's Law: Past, present, and future
media of instruction and technical requirements for education and examination in case of online participation	PowerPoint presentations, blackboard, lecture notes (complete set of slides as PDF)
