A comprehensive survey of nanotechnologies’ impact not only the semiconductor market but also its influence on consumer electronics from mobile phones to MP3 players. This 313-page report gives a definitive overview of the full spectrum of the electronics industry and how nanotechnologies are being, and will continue to be, applied, providing timelines of adoption and market size forecasts. Over 170 tables, figures and charts illuminate the complex connections between technology and product that allude much of the hype surrounding nanotechnology’s role in the electronics industry.

While molecular memories or IBM's still-to-be-commercialized Millipede technology have been touted as revolutionizing the electronics industry, it has been the applications of basic science such as the nanometer thin films enabling GMR (Giant Magneto Resistance) that has provided the iPods we use today.
