Asynchronous Nano-Electronics: Preliminary Investigation
This paper is a preliminary investigation in implementing
asynchronous QDI logic in molecular nano-electronics,
taking into account the restricted geometry, the lack of control
on transistor strengths, the high timing variations. We
show that the main building blocks of QDI logic can be successfully
implemented; we illustrate the approach with the
layout of an adder stage. The proposed techniques to improve
the reliability of QDI apply to nano-CMOS as well
