The Center

The Center for Single Atom Electronics and Photonics will pursue a new approach for the realization of integrated circuits. As a first step ETH and KIT will develop new atomic scale opto-electronic blocks for logic and memories. In a second step, a new generation of simple circuit will be realized by integrating the aforementioned building blocks.  A reduction of size by a factor of 100 and energy savings in the order of 1000 compared to establish CMOS devices will be demonstrated.
