3D-BRICKS will contribute to the development of new technologies for nanoelectronics based on self-assembly of nanomaterials by using biomolecule templates. The proposal will take advantage of the mature knowledge of DNA-based technology held by the consortium to go a step further and develop devices beyond the planar configuration. 

The project will enable the definition, fabrication and test of a new set of nanoelectronic circuits which application can be extended not only to FETs and non-volatile memories, but in general to multiple fields (neuromorphing computing, nano-sensors, etc.). We will develop self-assembled bottom-up DNA platforms for hybrid functional devices that combine different species such as CNTs and metallic nanomaterials to form logic circuits and is readily scalable to 3D geometries.
