I have a book that was turned into lost & found "The Elements Of Style"
please come and pick it up at my desk.

The field of semiconductor microelectronics is undergoing a
transformation to nanoelectronics. This transformation has been largely
driven by a ³top-down² approach that extends concepts and techniques
originally developed for bulk semiconductors and large device to the new
field of nanoscale device technology. But to exploit the opportunities
that nanoscience presents, engineers will need to learn how to think
about materials, devices, circuits, and systems in a new way to
complement traditional, top-down understanding with new, ³bottom-up²
perspectives.
Electronics from the Bottom Up is designed to promote the bottom-up
perspective by beginning at the nanoscale, and working up to the micro
and macroscale of devices and systems. For electronic devices, this
means first understanding the smallest electronic device a single
molecule with two contacts. For carrier transport, it means beginning at
the nanoscale where ballistic transport, atomistic effects, and
stochastic effects dominate. For MOSFETs, it means beginning with the
³ultimate² MOSFET. Electronics from the Bottom Up does not mean ab
initio numerical simulations it means beginning with concepts and
approaches that are both simple and sound
