Starting with a brief review on the single-electron memory and its significance among various single-electron devices, this paper addresses the key issues which one inevitably encounters when one tries to achieve giga-to-tera bit memory integration. Among the issues discussed are: room-temperature operation; memory-cell architecture; sensing scheme; cell-design guideline; use of nanocrystalline silicon versus lithography; array architecture; device-to-device variations; read/write error rate; and CMOS/single-electron-memory hybrid integration and its positioning among various memory architectures
