[2015] Thesis Abstract
[2008] My current area of research is Quantum-dot Cellular Automata, a promising next-gen technology which might just replace the CMOS technology as the main fabric for building digital circuits. The USP of QCA is that it uses charge orientation instead of current flow for computation, and promises extremely low power circuits. I am presently looking at the simulation and synthesis aspects of QCA.
