Principles of Electron Wave Computing using Quantum Resistor Networks

Abstract

Quantum resistor networks are interconnected thin wires or electron conducting wave guides. A multiple input-output quantum network is capable of performing massive parallel computing,similar to optical computing. Basic logic functions and arithmetic computation have been demonstrated to be possible on very simple structures. The basic principles of utilizing such quantum resistor networks are very important and are presented here.
