Silicon Atomic Quantum Dots Enable Beyond-CMOS Electronics

open access: yes, 2013
We review our recent efforts in building atom-scale quantum-dot cellular automata circuits on a silicon surface. Our building block consists of silicon dangling bond on a H-Si(001) surface, which has been shown to act as a quantum dot.

Ratchet Cellular Automata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this work we propose a ratchet effect which provides a general means of performing clocked logic operations on discrete particles, such as single electrons or vortices. The states are propagated through the device by the use of an applied AC drive. We

Fluxonic Cellular Automata

open access: yes, 2007
We formulate a new concept for computing with quantum cellular automata composed of arrays of nanostructured superconducting devices. The logic states are defined by the position of two trapped flux quanta (vortices) in a 2x2 blind-hole-matrix etched on ...

Locally synchronous, globally asynchronous design for quantum-dot cellular automata (LSGA QCA) [PDF]

open access: yes5th IEEE Conference on Nanotechnology, 2005., 2005
The concept of clocking for QCA, referred to as the four-phase clocking, is widely used. However, inherited characteristics of QCA, such as the way to hold state, the way to synchronize data flows, and the way to power QCA cells, make the design of QCA circuits quite different from VLSI and introduce a variety of new design challenges and the most ...

Ab initio studies of counterion effects in molecular quantum‐dot cellular automata

open access: yesJournal of Computational Chemistry, Volume 45, Issue 7, Page 392-404, March 15, 2024.
Randomly‐placed external counterions near ionic computational molecules may degrade QCA device operation. Ab initio calculations show that presence of nearby counterions affect the electron transfer (ET) matrix element and the inner‐sphere reorganization energy of a molecule.

The Role of Correlation in the Operation of Quantum-dot Cellular Automata

open access: yes, 2001
Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) may offer a viable alternative of traditional transistor-based technology at the nanoscale. When modeling a QCA circuit, the number of degrees of freedom necessary to describe the quantum mechanical state increases ...
