Multiple-control Toffoli(MCT) gates are macro-level multiple-valued gates needing quantum technology dependent primitive gates, and have been used in Galois Field sum-of-product (GFSOP) based synthesis of quantum logic circuit. Reversible logic is very important in quantum computing for low-power circuit design. This paper presents a reversible GF4 multiplier at first, and GF4 multiplier based quaternary MCT gate realization is also proposed. In the comparisons of MCT gate realization, we show the proposed MCT gate can reduce considerably primitive gates and delays in contrast to the composite one of the smaller MCT gates in proportion to the multiple-control input increase.

In this paper, the implementation of optical parallel boolean logic gates using two Liquid Crystal TVs is described. Based on theory of polarization modulation, two Liquid Crystal TVs are arranged in tandem and parallel to perform optical logic operations. Experimental results of binary image using two Liquid Crystal TVs are presented.

In this paper, the scheme of a single module for simultaneous operation of all-optical computing circuits, namely half adder and half subtractor, are realized using semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) based logic gates. Optical XOR gate by employing a SOA based Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration is used to get the sum and difference outputs. A carry signal is generated using a SOA-four wave mixing (FWM) based AND gate, whereas, the borrow is generated by employing the SOA-cross gain modulation (XGM) effect. The obtained results confirm the feasibility of our configuration by proving the good level of quality factor i.e. ~5.5, 9.95 and 12.51 for sum/difference, carry and borrow, respectively at 0 dBm of input power.

We demonstrate an optical gate architecture using a single SOA to perform AND, OR and NOT logic functions. Simple reconfigurable all-optical logic operations are implemented using RZ modulated signals at 40 Gb/s. Contrast ratio and extinction ratio values have been analysed for the different types of logic gates. Maximum extinction ratio and contrast ratio achieved are 19dB and 17.2 dB respectively. Simple structure and potential for integration makes this architecture an interesting approach in photonic computing and optical signal processing.

Recently, interest in multivalued(MV) logic system has been increased, despites the apparent difficulties for practical application. This is because of the many advantages of the MV compared with the 2-valued logic systems, such as; (a) higher speed of arithmetical operation on account of the smaller number of digits required for a given data, (b) better utilization of data transmission channels on account of the higher information contents per line, (c) potentially higher density of information storage. This paper describes a MV switching theory and experimental MV logic elements based on current-mode logic technique. These elements tried were a 3-stable pulse generator, a ternary AND, a ternary OR, a MT circuit and a ternary inverter. Tristable flops which are indispensable for constituting a ternary shift register are synthesized using these gates. A BCD to TCD decoder, and vice versa, are proposed by using a ternary inverter and some binary gates. Thus, the feasibility of a large scale MV digital system has been demonstrate.

In this paper, the research results on monolithic three-dimensional integrated-circuit (M3DICs) stacked with tunneling field effect transistors (TFETs) are introduced. Unlike metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs), TFETs are designed differently from the layout of symmetrical MOSFETs because the source and drain of TFET are asymmetrical. Various monolithic 3D inverter (M3D-INV) structures and layouts are possible due to the asymmetric structure, and among them, a simple inverter structure with the minimum metal layer is proposed. Using the proposed M3D-INV, this M3D logic gates such as NAND and NOR gates by sequentially stacking TFETs are proposed, respectively. The simulation results of voltage transfer characteristics of the proposed M3D logic gates are investigated using mixed-mode simulator of technology computer aided design (TCAD), and the operation of each logic circuit is verified. The cell area for each M3D logic gate is reduced by about 50% compared to one for the two-dimensional planar logic gates.

Low-power logic gates, i.e. inverter, NAND, and NOR, are proposed employing only n-channel oxide thin film transistors (TFTs). The proposed circuits were designed to prevent the pull-up and pull-down switches from being turned on simultaneously by using asymmetric feed-through and bootstrapping, thereby exhibited same output voltage swing as the input signal and no static current. The inverter is composed of 5 TFTs and 2 capacitors. The NAND and the NOR gates consist of 10 TFTs and 4 capacitors respectively. The operations of the logic gates were confirmed successfully by SPICE simulation using oxide TFT model.

Using the cross-gain modulation (XGM) characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs), multi-functional all-optical logic gates, including XOR, AND, and OR gates are successfully simulated and demonstrated at 10Gbit/s. A VPI component maker^TM simulation tool is used for the simulation of multi-functional all-optical logic gates and the10 Cbit/s input signal is made by a mode-locked fiber ring laser. A multi-quantum well (MQW) SOA is used for the simulation and demonstration of the all-optical logic system. Our suggested system is composed of three MQW SOAs, SOA-1 and SOA-2 for XOR logic operation and SOA-2 and SOA-3 for AND logic operation. By the addition of two output signals XOR and AND, all-optical OR logic can be obtained.

This paper introduces novel functionally integrated logic elements which are conceptuallized for large scale integrated circuits. Efforts are made to minimize the gate size as well as to reduce the operational voltage, without sacrificing the speed performance of the gates. The process used was a rather conventional collector diffusion isolation(CDI) process. New gate structures are formed by merging several transistors of a gate in the silicon substrate. Thested elements are CML(Current Mode Logic) and EECL (Emitter-to-Emitter Coupled Logic)gates. The obtained experimental results are power-delay product of 6~11pJ and delay time/gate of 1.6~1.8 ns, confirming the possibility of these novel gate structures as a VLSI-candidate.
