چکیده

A simple model quantum dot cell containing two electrons is analyzed as a candidate for quantum cellular automata implementations. The cell has eigenstates whose charge density is strongly aligned along one of two directions. In the presence of the electrostatic perturbation due to a neighboring cell, the ground state is nearly completely aligned (polarized) in one direction only. The polarization is a highly nonlinear function of the perturbing electrostatic fields and shows the strong bistable saturation important for cellular automation function.

The Development of Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata

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.
