A
larger and larger part of consumer electronic goods is transforming to
be mobile, which will require novel solutions for power efficiency and
performance. In order to ensure the user experience for devices, that
are always with you, the form factor of the device has to be
optimized for different situations. An adaptive device with
sensors will be able to change the mode according to the context and to
operate even as a health assistant. The device will also be connected
to other devices locally and globally via radio.
These are formidable challenges, impossible for current technologies
but maybe achievable by nanotechnology. I will discuss how
nanotechnology will enable thin, light weight, energy efficient,
transparent, stretchable devices, and especially how allotropes of
carbon will be utilized both for high frequency and low cost
electronics, transparent, flexible connectors, displays and speakers,
flexible batteries and super capacitors with high energy and power
density. The possibility to change the electrical properties of
graphene by modifying the geometry of the graphene ribbons or a
periodic potential on graphene film opens ways, not only for enhancing
the performance of current devices, but designing completely new kind
of electronics.
