Abstract
From 1965, the trends of innovations in electronic applications follow Moore's law, which specified that the number of transistors on a microchip doubles every two years, allowing faster and efficient computational progress, decreasing costs and increasing performance. Nowadays, due to the physical limits of semiconductor-based technology, the increase of miniaturization is approaching saturation. For this reason, alternative technologies became necessary. One of these is "Beyond-CMOS", where the most promising technology is Field-Coupled Nanocomputing (FCN). It is based on the propagation of information on a device using field's interactions. There is no current transport, enabling higher miniaturization and low power dissipation. In particular, Molecular FCN is the basis of our study.
