Evaluating safety and stability of CNT nanocomposites exposed to environmental conditions

Orlov A., Ramakrishnan G., Ging J., Hubert A., Feka P., Korach C.S., Stony Brook University, US

There is a growing interest in the development of nanocomposites consisting of organic polymers and various nanomaterials. These materials can provide unique functionalities as compared to unmodified polymers in terms of dielectric behavior, thermal and [...]

Clocked Quantum-dot Cellular Automata circuits

Kummamurui R., Orlov A., Lent C., Bernstein G., Snider G., University of Notre Dame, US

We present an experimental demonstration of novel Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) circuits utilizing clocked architecture -a QCA latch and a two-bit QCA shift register. Devices are fabricated using metal tunnel junction technology and operate at [...]

Background Charge Insensitive Single-Electron Memory Devices

Yadavalli K., Orlov A., Snider G., Likharev K., Korotkov A., University of Notre Dame, US

In a Single-Electron Memory Cell (SEMC) one bit of information is represented by the excess or shortfall of a small (¡_1) number of electrons on the floating gate (FG). We present experimental results on the [...]
