Quantum Cellular Automata : Theory, Experimentation And Prospects.

Show other versions (1)

The Quantum Cellular Automaton (QCA) concept represents an attempt to break away from the traditional three-terminal device paradigm that has dominated digital computation. Since its early formulation in 1993 at Notre Dame University, the QCA idea has received significant attention and several physi...
