According to Moore's Law, the number of transistors integrated on a semiconductor chip doubles every two years, and its energy consumption also rapidly increases. Moreover, traditional silicon electronic devices cannot guarantee operation under extreme conditions such as high temperature or radiation. In order to support equipment upgrades and reduce energy consumption, researchers have been looking for alternative technologies or hybrid technologies, among which Nano-Member (NEM) switching technology is gradually showing bright prospects. Over the past 10 years, scientists have devoted great enthusiasm to the development of hybrid or stand-alone nano-motor equipment. According to a report recently organized by the Physicist Organization Network, the Northwestern University’s McCormick School of Engineering recently studied the advances made in the field of nano-machines in the last 10 years, and detailed various unsuccessful models and possible ways to overcome these shortcomings. The prospects of the technology and the major challenges currently facing are comprehensively discussed. Related papers were published in Nature Nanotechnology. “Nano-electromechanical exchangers consist of nanostructures, such as carbon nanotubes or nanowires, which undergo a mechanical diversion under the action of electrostatic forces to connect or disconnect the electrodes.†Professor Olasio Espin, professor of manufacturing and business at the institute Noosa explained that this type of switch can be designed to work like a silicon transistor. It can also be used as a stand-alone device, but it can also be used to manufacture hybrid nanomotor-silicon devices that meet the needs of ultra-low power and high-temperature radiation environments. The researchers pointed out that the nano-motor industry is facing a long-term challenge, is to create a million carbon nanotube array, which is necessary for the further manufacture of nano-motor equipment, and modern silicon electronic equipment can be made on a chip Billions of transistors. In their paper, they detailed various methods for producing nanoarrays so far, as well as ways to achieve large-scale production of nanomotor-integrated-circuit-chip hybrid devices. In addition, it is extremely difficult for reliable nanometer motors to run millions of times reliably, but it is a must for consumer electronics. "If we use ordinary metal electrodes for nano-electromechanical equipment, the switch will stop after less than 10 starts." said Irwin Luo, Ph.D. student at Northwestern University, co-author of the paper. He said that the solution is very simple, as long as replacing the metal electrode with a conductive, diamond-like carbon film can greatly increase the equipment's ability to withstand rotation. The current number of revolutions has exceeded 1 million times, and this improvement is a key step to promote nano-motor equipment into reality. This new material was co-investigated by Northwestern University, Sandia National Laboratory Integrated Nanotechnology Center, and Argonne National Laboratory Nanomaterials Center. Related papers have been published in Advanced Materials magazine. From large servers to cars and mobile phones, traditional silicon-based integrated circuits are widely used, which cannot be separated from the continuous upgrading of the semiconductor industry for decades. Espinosa also pointed out that the selection of new materials will greatly enhance the robustness and stability of the next-generation nano-motor equipment, promote the continuous upgrading of the electronics industry scale, and serve all walks of life. Whether it is a hybrid or a stand-alone, it requires impetus from the fields of engineering, basic science and materials science.
