S. Devendra K. Verma, P. K. Barhai . Design and Development of Nanoelectronic Binary Decision Tree Device based on CMOS and QCA (Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata) Nanotechnology. International Journal of Computer Applications. 58, 7 ( November 2012), 32-37. DOI=10.5120/9297-3513
Evolution of microelectronics towards miniaturization is one of the main motivations for Nanotechnology. CMOS Technology has been targeted to integrate more and more Devices per unit area of Silicon-substrate, but there is limitation in scaling-down CMOS Circuits/Devices. Like Nanotechnology, QCA (Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata) is another alternate Technology having ability to reduce the Device-sizes beyond the CMOS Devices. The QCA enables the Moore's law to double the Devices every 18 months. The continued improvements in miniaturization, speed and power reduction in information processing devices, sensors, displays, logic devices, storage devices, transmission devices, communication devices, etc. will bring another Technical Revolution, which will change our life. The Design Strategies focus on CMOS Technology (<50 nanometer) and QCA Technology to achieve low power consumption, low voltage operation, high operating frequency, minimized number of transistors/gates/devices, reduced fabrication cost, high speed communication, flexibility, programmability, and service efficiency. In our Research Work, we would like to focus on Design & Development of Nanoelectronic Binary Decision Tree Device based on CMOS and QCA (Quantum-Dot Cellular Automata) Nanotechnology as Building Blocks, for constructing more complex Circuits/Devices, defining Features/Functionalities and monitoring Status of WiMAX/WiFi/Satellite and other Wireless Communication Systems.
