The Future of Microelectronics is … Macroelectronics

Abstract: The title is actually not as provocative as it might seem. No one debates the miraculous success of microelectronics -enshrined in Moore's law and iconified by Pentium chips -in transforming how we communicate and compute. Even as the technology -buffeted by many fundamental limits -slides into a more mature phase, the degree of miniaturization of transistors continues to amaze, e.g. the number of transistors made in a year by Intel or TSMC exceeds the number of ants or leaves in the world! Yet, the most excit… Show more

“… Mesoporous materials with this morphology have branching wires and pores with 3D symmetry and, therefore, have a number of advantages over the 1D hexagonal pore structure relating to diffusion and conductivity and overcoming problems with pore orientation and blockage; moreover, it has been theoretically predicted that gyroid structures formed from low loss metals could act as negative refractive index metamaterials . Mesoporous materials with gyroid nanowire networks have found applications in actuators, photocatalysts, solar cells, electrodes, catalysts, , and sensors . For the most part, these have not been directly templated from the liquid crystal phase (although we have recently reported the electrodeposition of a structurally related “single diamond” nanowire network using an inverse bicontinuous cubic phase) .…”

“…In recent decades, macroelectronics and its applications have been increasingly present in the technological landscape to such an extent that macroelectronics is sometimes seen as the future of microelectronics [1]. Macroelectronic applications are defined by displays, solar cells, electronic sensors, radio-frequency electronics or smart surfaces and more generally by transparent, flexible and stretchable electronics.…”
