Aim of this lecture is to provide an introduction and brief overview of new trends in Nanoelectronics. Namely we will focus on physics of structures and devices with reduced dimensionality. The course explains basics of atomic and electronic structure of 2D, 1D and 0D quantum objects.
Different concepts of Molecular electronics will be discussed, including the understanding of electron transport through molecular structures, where it is essential to consider quantum effects. The in-depth analysis of simple cases and model systems will be supplemented by a more realistic description and presen
