3D wavefunctions
Animations | 12 Apr 2010 | Contributor(s):: Saumitra Raj Mehrotra, Gerhard Klimeck
In quantum mechanics the time-independent Schrodinger's equation can be solved for eigenfunctions (also called eigenstates or wave-functions) and corresponding eigenenergies (or energy levels) for a stationary physical system. The wavefunction itself can take on negative and positive values and...

Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) - Memory Cells
Animations | 03 Feb 2006 | Contributor(s):: John C. Bean
Scientists and engineers are looking for completely different ways of storing and analyzing information. Quantum-dot Cellular Automata are one possible solution. In computers of the future, transistors may be replaced by assemblies of quantum dots called Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCAs).This...

Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) - Logic Gates
Animations | 03 Feb 2006 | Contributor(s):: John C. Bean
An earlier animation described how "Quantum-dot Cellular Automata" (QCAs) could serve as memory cells and wires. This animation contnues the story by describing how QCAs can be made into MAJORITY, OR, AND, and INVERTER logic gates.
