Variational Iterative Rotation Algorithm: Combinatorial Optimization with Classical Kicked Tops
Flaviano Morone, Andrew D. Kent, Dries Sels
We investigate a classical formulation of the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA), realized as a Hamiltonian dynamical system of classical kicked tops, which we call…

Magnetic tunnel junction as a real-time entropy source: Field-Programmable Gate Array based random bit generation without post-processing
Troy Criss, Ahmed Sidi El Valli, Naomi Li +2
We demonstrate a method to generate application-ready truly random bits from a magnetic tunnel junction driven by a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). We implement a real-time f…

Tunable Random Telegraph Noise in Stable Perpendicular Magnetic Tunnel Junctions for Unconventional Computing
Ahmed Sidi El Valli, Michael Tsao, Dairong Chen +1
We demonstrate that thermally stable perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions (pMTJs), widely used in spin-transfer torque magnetic random-access memory, can be actuated with nanose…
