Abstract
A circuit for transferring charge, which may be in the form of charged particles from a first storage element to one of a plurality of second storage elements, the circuit comprising a circuit element configured to receive the charge or charged particles and deliver the charge or charged particles to an identified one of the plurality of second storage elements. The charge delivered may be the same charged particles or other charged particles. The circuit may be used for embodying Boolean circuits or gates operable at cryo temperatures.
Claims15
A circuit for transferring charge comprising:
- a first storage element,
- a plurality of second storage elements, and
- a circuit element configured to:
- receive one or more first charged particle(s) from the first storage element,
- receive information identifying one or more of the second storage elements and
- deliver one or more second charged particle(s) to each of the plurality of second storage elements, the second charged particles delivered to the second storage element(s) identified by the information representing the same charge as the first charged particles.
A circuit for transferring charge comprising:
- a first storage element,
- a plurality of second storage elements, and
- a circuit element configured to:
- receive information identifying one of the second storage elements,
- receive one or more first charged particle(s) from the identified one of the plurality of second storage elements and
- deliver one or more second charged particle(s) to the first storage element, the first charged particles of the identified second storage element representing the same charge as the second charged particles.
A circuit comprising:
- an input storage element configured to receive one or more charged particles,
- a first operator element comprising:
- a first operator storage element,
- a first source of charged particles configured to feed charged particles to the first operator storage element,
- a first controlling means configured to control the first source to:
- feed a first number of charged particles to the first operator storage element if the input storage element holds fewer charged particles than a first threshold number of charged particles, the first number of particles being at or above a second threshold number of charged particles and
- feed a second number of charged particles to the first operator storage element if the input storage element holds more charged particles than the first threshold number of charged particles, the second number of particles being below the second threshold number of charged particles.

- the second input storage element holds fewer charged particles than a second threshold number of charged particles, the first number of particles being at or above a third threshold number of charged particles and
- feed a second number of charged particles to the first operator storage element if:
- the first input storage element holds more charged particles than the first threshold number of charged particles, or
- the second input storage element holds more charged particles than the second threshold number of charged particles, the second number of particles being below the third threshold number of charged particles.
A circuit comprising:
