A Simple Quantum Computer
We propose an implementation of a quantum computer to solve Deutsch's
problem, which requires exponential time on a classical computer but only
linear time with quantum parallelism. By using a dual-rail qubit representation
as a simple form of error correction, our machine can tolerate some amount of
decoherence and still give the correct result with high probability. The design
which we employ also demonstrates a signature for quantum parallelism which
unambiguously delineates the desired quantum behavior from the merely
classical. The experimental demonstration of our proposal using quantum optical
components calls for the development of several key technologies common to
single photonics.Comment: 8 pages RevTeX + 6 figures in postscrip
Low Power Reversible Parallel Binary Adder/Subtractor
In recent years, Reversible Logic is becoming more and more prominent
technology having its applications in Low Power CMOS, Quantum Computing,
Nanotechnology, and Optical Computing. Reversibility plays an important role
when energy efficient computations are considered. In this paper, Reversible
eight-bit Parallel Binary Adder/Subtractor with Design I, Design II and Design
III are proposed. In all the three design approaches, the full Adder and
Subtractors are realized in a single unit as compared to only full Subtractor
in the existing design. The performance analysis is verified using number
reversible gates, Garbage input/outputs and Quantum Cost. It is observed that
Reversible eight-bit Parallel Binary Adder/Subtractor with Design III is
efficient compared to Design I, Design II and existing design.Comment: 12 pages,VLSICS Journa
