Abstract
Since 1960s, Moore’s law describes the technological evolution of electronic devices through an exponential growth in computing performance. To perform increasingly complex operations, a higher energy consumption is needed, demanding energetic resources and compromising the device's performance. Moore’s law is becoming difficult to be respected, thus approaching its end. New technologies must be investigated based on different principles with respect to silicon-based ones; such technologies are named beyond-CMOS. Molecular Field-Coupled Nanocompunting (MolFCN) stands out as a promising Beyond CMOS technology thanks to its high device density and promising high-frequency operation at room temperature. MolFCN encodes binary information through charge localization in aggregation regions of molecules.
The application of external electric fields, applied through the so-called molecule hosting structures, allows forcing specific charge configurations encoding (input field) or deleting (clock field) information
