Explore the potential for nanotechnologies to transform future mobile and Internet communications. Based on a research collaboration between Nokia, Helsinki University of Technology, and the University of Cambridge, here leading researchers review the current state-of-the art and future prospects for: • Novel multifunctional materials, dirt repellent, self-healing surface materials, and lightweight structural materials capable of adapting their shape • Portable energy storage using supercapacitor-battery hybrids based on new materials including carbon nanohorns and porous electrodes, fuel cell technologies, energy harvesting and more efficient solar cells • Electronics and computing advances reaching beyond IC scaling limits, new computing approaches and architectures, embedded intelligence and future memory technologies. • Nanoscale transducers for mechanical, optical and chemical sensing, sensor signal processing, and nanoscale actuation • Nanoelectronics to create ultrafast and adaptive electronics for future radio technologies • Flat panel displays with greater robustness, improved resolution, brightness and contrast, and mechanical flexibility • Manufacturing and innovation processes, plus commercialization of nanotechnologies.

Insights on designing a sustainable 6G system as a multi-functional platform that delivers services beyond communication 6G to Build a Sustainable Future provides a summary of the research conducted in the European 6G Flagship project Hexa-X-II towards the sixth generation (6G) mobile networks, with additional input from other smart networks and services joint undertaking (SNS-JU) projects, such as 6G-DISAC, 6G-MUSICAL, 6G-NTN, 6G-SHINE, Deterministic 6G, RIGOROUS, ROBUST-6G, TERRAMETA and TERA6G. The book explores the motivation, values, and needs of 6G, with a strong emphasis on environmental, economic, and social sustainability. To address these needs, the 6G system will be designed as a platform, providing services including and beyond communication; the book provides an end-to-end (E2E) blueprint of this system. The book also outlines the potential paths from the project results towards standardization and further towards introduction to the markets. Topics discussed include: Design principles, requirements, value, validation and blueprints for inclusive, trustworthy, and environmentally sustainable 6G platforms6G transceiver and radio design, covering architecture and deployment, radio link modeling, transmission schemes, and signal processing hardware6G intelligence through AI-native architecture, smart network management, and intent-based managementArchitectural enablers including flexible networks, dependable networking, beyond communication services architecture, and radio protocolsE2E security concepts, covering security enablersAll this from Hexa-X-II as well as other SNS-JU projects6G to Build a Sustainable Future is an essential, up-to-date reference for wireless researchers, network planners, technology analysts, technology marketers, R&D engineers, application developers, spectrum regulators, and students.
