Abstract
A collection of technologies that operates, analyzes, and controls materials at the nanoscopic level, is now merging into the main stream of electronics with examples ranging from quantum-electronic lasers to memory devices, even Nano Electro Mechanical Systems (NEMS) known as the Nanotechnology. State variables are physical representations of information used to perform information processing via memory and logic functionality. Advances in material science, emerging nanodevices, nanostructures, and architectures have provided hope that alternative state variables based on new mechanisms, nanomaterials, and nanodevices may indeed be plausible. The review and analysis of the computational advantages that alternate state variables may possibly attain with respect to maximizing computational performance via minimum energy dissipation, maximum operating switching speed, and maximum device density is performed. An outlook of some important state variables for emerging nanoelectronic devices is suggested in the work.
