“…There are two crossover forms of QCA, namely coplanar and multilayer. 2,4 In coplanar crossover, all cells are placed in a single plane or layer and this type of crossover is usually favored from the point of view of viability. There are three potential ways of constructing coplanar crossover circuits.…”

“…Figure 2B, includes the crossover of cells in clock zone 0 and zone 2, while cells in clock zone 1 and zone 3 are used in the third process, as shown in Figure 2C. Over the last decade, QCA technology has been frequently used for designing different digital circuits such as adders, 5,6 multiplexers, 7–11 switching circuits, 12–14 reversible logic, 1,4,15–17 sequential circuits, 18–21 etc. One such application area considered in this paper is the design of coplanar random access memories.…”

In this paper, a loop based coplanar random access memory (RAM) cell with set/reset ability using quantum‐dot cellular automata (QCA) technology is first proposed. The operation of the RAM cell is validated physically as well as by simulations using QCADesigner tool. The energy dissipation analysis of the proposed RAM cell demonstrates that the proposed design dissipates very low energy. Additionally, the fault tolerance to single cell missing and addition defects of the proposed RAM cell is also presented. Further, we designed a coplanar 1 × 4 RAM which consists of four proposed RAM cells, one 2:4 decoder and one 5‐input majority voter along with the control signals required for the proper operation of the RAM. The proposed RAM cell and 1 × 4 RAM designs achieve performance improvement of up to 88.16% and 79.28%, respectively from the existing design in terms of QCA circuit cost. These structures can therefore be used to design efficient higher order RAM structures.

In the current digital era, there is a need of secure and efficient nano communication systems with ultra-low power consumption. One technology that can be used for designing these systems is quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA). In the nano regime, QCA is able to operate with higher speed and lower power dissipation along with high density compared to CMOS technology. This work explores the applicability and feasibility of designing nano communication systems using code converters. In this paper, efficient 4-bit, 8-bit, and 16-bit designs of binary to gray (B2G) and gray to binary (G2B) converters which can be scaled up to N-bits are proposed. The N-bit B2G and G2B converters can be designed using 33 + 38 (0.25N − 1) and 63 + 76 (0.25N − 1) cells with a latency of 0.5 and 0.25N clock cycles, respectively. The converters are then used to design 4-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit communication systems for efficient data transmission and reception. Based on the performance comparison, it is observed that the proposed B2G and G2B designs achieve up to 90.03% and 99.64% improvement in terms of cost of the circuit thereby making them most cost efficient QCA designs. In addition to this, exhaustive energy dissipation analysis of the proposed designs is also presented. It is observed that the proposed designs can be efficiently utilized in designing nano communication systems requiring minimal area and ultra-low power consumption.quantum-dot cellular automata, code converters, nano-communication system, binary to gray converters, gray to binary converters | INTRODUCTIONQuantum-dot cellular automata (QCA), owing to its high density, small size, and ultra-low power dissipation in the nano regime while operating at high frequencies (in the range of few THz), is an emerging technology to design digital circuits in the sub-nano regime where CMOS is facing various limitations. QCA technology was first proposed in 1993 by Lent et al., 1 and over the last decade, it has been exhaustively used to design various digital logics such as adders and subtractors, 2-9 sequential circuits, 10-14 reversible logic, 9,15-20 and memories.
