Abstract

This literature review paper closely looked into different aspects of nanoelectronics and nanomagnetics. A brief overview was given followed by the review in nanoelectronics and nanomagnetics. In nanoelectronics, carbon nanotubes, nanowires and sensors as well some miscellaneous categories were focused upon. Nanomagnetics had a variety of aspects that were equally focused upon except for RFID; since RFID is such an upcoming prospect in the nanotechnology field, and it was focused on greater detail. Currently, in the fields of nanoelectronic and nanomagnetic architecture, devices and fabrication methods are of great importance. This is the most focused area and even in the near future, these particular areas are the main focus for further advancement. All in all, this literature review paper considered a variety of nanoelectronic and nanomagnetic aspects since it is a promising industry.
