News: Where’s my molecular nanocomputer?
The November edition of Chemistry World includes a great piece on molecule-level computing.
Writer James Mitchell Crow provides a tour through the current state of the art, and how chemists are critical to progress: “Rather than organic molecules that directly replicate the function of conventional electronic components such a transistors and diodes, the concept is to design multifunctional molecules that can operate as a logic gate in their own right – thereby removing the need to wire up multiple molecules into each logic circuit.”
