Study of Logic Gates Using Quantum Cellular Automata

, and . Int. J. on Recent Trends in Engineering and Technology,, 8 (2): 3 (January 2013)

Abstract

The power consumption of MOS technology device can be reduced by scaling the devices. The technology also tries to improve speed by working on the already existing technology. The need for new technology is fast approaching as Moore’s law cannot hold good for next few years. For the same purpose we should turn to quantum logic and quantum cells. Quantum cellular automaton is one such technology. Though the technology is in its primitive stage, many people are working in this field. After a breakthrough in the physical implementation of the basic quantum cell the new technology is mainly focused on implementing digital designs. This article is trying to review and implement the basic gates in quantum cellular automata. Implementation is done in QCA Designer provided by University of British Columbia.
