Transition to molecular/quantum electronics is
still remote and it will be different than the
previous revolutions in computer technology

• As may be seen from suggested forecast,
  molecular/quantum electronics as the mainstream
  of computer technology is still distant in about
  two decades. Even then, the solid-state
  electronics will persist while accommodating
  evolving molecular electronics in hybrid computer
  systems until molecular/quantum systems become
  absolutely dominant. November, 2004

Molecular electronics the research direction
which Ideal goal is synthesis of molecules that
would be able to conduct the elementary functions
of the information transforming, alteration from
solid-state systems to molecular systems
functioning based on one-electron phonon-free
transitions.
It is not difficult to imagine a hypothetic
molecular analog of solid-state element But in
general, it should be anticipated that molecular
elements, when they will be created, would be
able to process more complex functions than
bit-by-bit data storage and processing. 1981
