论文摘要
制造硅悬挂键（SIDB）的进步揭示了一个潜在的平台，用于时钟耦合的纳米计算结构。这项工作介绍了Poissolver，Poissolver是一种有限的元件模拟器，用于调查SIQAD设计工具中的时钟SIDB系统。从量子点蜂窝自动机上借来的三个时钟方案被视为SIDB电路的一般时钟框架的潜在构件。这些时钟方案在SIQAD中实现，并使用几何不可知的方法执行功率估计来表征每个时钟方案。发现使用14 nm技术节点的时钟方案可在1 GHz时耗散10-100 UW CM-2，而1 THz的1-10 W CM-2。
Advancements in the fabrication of silicon dangling bonds (SiDBs) reveal a potential platform for clocked field coupled nanocomputing structures. This work introduces PoisSolver, a finite element simulator for investigating clocked SiDB systems in the SiQAD design tool. Three clocking schemes borrowed from prior work on quantum-dot cellular automata are examined as potential building blocks for a general clocking framework for SiDB circuits. These clocking schemes are implemented in SiQAD, and power estimates are performed with geometrically agnostic methods to characterise each clocking scheme. Clocking schemes using a 14 nm technology node are found to dissipate 10-100 uW cm-2 at 1 GHz and 1-10 W cm-2 at 1 THz.
