  • In this paper, we propose a new multiplexer using quantum dot cellular automata (QCA), a next-generation digital circuit design technology. A multiplexer among digital circuits is a circuit that selects one of the input signals and transfers the selected input to one line. Since it is used in many circuits such as D-flip-flops, resistors, and RAM cells, research has been conducted in various ways to date. However, the previously proposed planar structure multiplexer does not consider connectivity, and therefore, when designing a large circuit, it uses an area inefficiently. There was also a multiplexer proposed as a multi-layer structure, but it does not improve the area due to not considering the interaction between cells. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new multiplexer that improves 38% area reduction, 17% cost reduction, and connectivity using a cell-to-cell interaction and multi-layer structure.

  • Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata is a next-generation nanocircular design technology that is drawing attention from many research organizations not only because it is possible to design efficient circuits by overcoming the physical size limitations of existing CMOS circuits, but also because of its energy-efficient features. In this paper, one of the existing digital circuits, T flip-flop circuit, is proposed using QCA. The previously proposed T flip-flops are designed based on the majority gate, so the circuits are complex and have long delays. Therefore, the design of the XOR gate-based T flip-flop using cell interaction reduces circuit complexity and minimizes latency. The proposed circuit is simulated using QCADesigner, and the performance is compared and analyzed with the existing proposed circuits.

  • Encoding means converting or processing form or format of information into the other forms to standardize, secure, improve processing speed, store saving spaces and etc. Also, Encoding is converting the information so as to do transmit other form on the sender's information to the receiver in Information-Communication. The device that is conducting the processing is called the encoder. In this dissertation, proposes an encoder of the most basic 4-to-2 encoder. proposed encoder consists of two OR-gate and the proposed structure designs and optimize the spacing of the cell for the purpose of minimizing noise between wiring. Through QCADesigner conducts simulation of the proposed encoder and analyzes the results confirm the effectiveness.

  • To electropolymerize Polypyrrole(ppy) film modified with fullerene $ions(full^-)$ the cell, Au/5 mM pyrrole, 1mM fullerene, 0.1M $TBABF_4,\;CH_2Cl_2/Pt$, was employed to Prepare the wafer-like type of $electrode/ppy(full^-)ppy(full^-){\ldots}$ electrodes. They were applied to deposit alkali metal ions with the cell of Au(quartz crystal analyzer; QCA)/ppy$(full^-)$, 0.01M metal ion(aq.)/Pt. The depositing rate constant of each ion for $Li^+,\;Na^+,\;K^+,\;Rb^+\;and\;Cs^+$, determined from the first order equation was $1.60\times10^{-8},\;3.13\times10^{-11},\;1.38\times10^{-9},\;2.71\times10^{-11}\;and\;2.98\times10^{-12}mo1.s^{-1}$ respectively. The calculated stoichiometry of the ions determined by quartz crystal microbalance(QCM) at the electrodes was $Li_7C_{60},\;Na_4C_{60},\;K_3C_{60},\;Rb_1C_{60}\;and\;Cs_1C_{60}$ respectively.
