Variational Quantum Eigensolver Models of Molecular Quantum Dot Cellular Automata
Nischal Binod Gautam, Enrique P. Blair
Molecular quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) may provide low-power, high-speed computational hardware for processing classical information. Simulation and modeling play an importa…
Project-Based Learning in Introductory Quantum Computing Courses: A Case Study on Quantum Algorithms for Medical Imaging
Nischal Binod Gautam, Keith Evan Schubert, Enrique P. Blair
Quantum computing introduces abstract concepts and non-intuitive behaviors that can be challenging for students to grasp through traditional lecture-based instruction alone. This p…
Clocked Quantum-dot Cellular Automata Circuits Tolerate Unwanted External Electric Fields
Peizhong Cong, Enrique P. Blair
Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) may provide low-power, general-purpose computing in the post-CMOS era. A molecular implementation of QCA features nanometer-scale devices and ma…
Robust Electric-field Input Circuits for Clocked Molecular Quantum-dot Cellular Automata
Peizhong Cong, Enrique P. Blair
Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a paradigm for low-power, general-purpose, classical computing designed to overcome the challenges facing CMOS in the extreme limits of scali…
Non-Markovian Models of Environmentally-driven Disentanglement in Molecular Charge Qubits
Shengyang Zhou, Enrique P. Blair
Models of quantum disentanglement are developed for nanometer-scale molecular charge qubits (MCQs). Two MCQs, and , are prepared in a Bell state and separated for negligible…
Tunable, Hardware-based Quantum Random Number Generation using Coupled Quantum Dots
Heath McCabe, Scott M. Koziol, Gregory L. Snider +1
Random numbers are a valuable commodity in gaming and gambling, simulation, conventional and quantum cryptography, and in non-conventional computing schemes such as stochastic comp…
An Explicit Electron-Vibron Model for Olfactory Inelastic Electron Transfer Spectroscopy
Nishattasnim Liza, Enrique P. Blair
The vibrational theory of olfaction was posited to explain subtle effects in the sense of smell inexplicable by models in which molecular structure alone determines an odorant's sm…
Electric-field Inputs for Molecular Quantum-dot Cellular Automata Circuits
Enrique P. Blair
Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a low-power, non-von-Neumann, general-purpose paradigm for classical computing using transistor-free logic. An elementary QCA device called a…
Entanglement loss in molecular quantum-dot qubits due to interaction with the environment
Enrique P. Blair, Geza Toth, Craig S. Lent
We study quantum entanglement loss due to environmental interaction in a condensed matter system with a complex geometry relevant to recent proposals for computing with single elec…
