The Development of Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata
نویسندگان
چکیده
Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a paradigm for connecting nanoscale bistable devices to accomplish general-purpose computation. The idea has its origins in the technology of quantum dots, Coulomb blockade, and Landauer’s observations on digital devices and energy dissipation. We examine the early development of this paradigm and its various implementations.
