To address these challenges, researchers and engineers are actively exploring new paradigms that extend beyond traditional semiconductor technologies. Among the most promising approaches are quantum computing, nanoelectronics, spintronics, neuromorphic computing, molecular electronics, and other Beyond CMOS technologies. These emerging fields have the potential to revolutionize computation, communication, sensing, and information processing in the coming
decades.
This book, Quantum Computing and Future of Electronics– Beyond CMOS, provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental concepts, architectures, technologies, and applications that are shaping the future of computing. The book bridges the gap between classical electronic systems and next generation computational platforms by presenting both theoretical foundations and practical perspectives.
The topics covered include the evolution of CMOS technology, limitations of conventional scaling, introduction to quantum mechanics for computing, qubits and quantum gates, quantum algorithms, quantum hardware platforms, quantum communication, quantum networking, quantum cryptography, hybrid quantum classical architectures, quantum machine learning, and emerging Beyond-CMOS technologies. Special emphasis is given to the integration of quantum computing with modern electronic systems and future semiconductor technologies.
