Abstract

Quantum dot cellular automata (QCA) is supposed to be the most promising technology which is an efficient nanotechnology and overcomes the limitations of the CMOS technology. Thus this technology is considered as the most preferable replacement of CMOS. This paper presents a design methodology of dynamic memory using 2-dot 1-electron QCA. According to the best of our knowledge, this has not been reported yet. The proposed design is supposed to be an optimum design with respect to cell requirement.
