“…Thanks to the columbic interaction between electrons in neighboring cells, different types of the inverter gates in QCA were proposed [23][24][25][26]. The principle operation of this gate is to invert the input signal applied.…”

Novel digital technologies always lead to high density and very low power consumption. One of these concepts-quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA), which is one of the new emerging nanotechnologies, is based on Coulomb repulsion. This chapter presents a novel design of 2-input Exclusive-NOR (XNOR)/Exclusive-OR (XOR) gates with 3-input Exclusive-NOR (XNOR) gates which are composed of 10 cells on 0.006 μm 2 of area. A novel architecture of 3-input Exclusive-OR (XOR) gate is defined by 12 cells on 0.008 μm 2 of area. The proposed design of 2-input XOR/XNOR gate structures provide less area and low complexity than the best reported design. The simulation results of proposed designs have been achieved using QCA Designer tool version 2.0.3.

“…In an array of similar QCA cells, the total dissipated power can be calculated by adding the dissipated power of all cells since the presented model for each QCA cell is identical [5]. By applying the mentioned concepts, the author of [8] have proposed a power dissipation model for QCA circuits with separating the total power into two main components which called "leakage" and "switching". Power losses during clock changes (from low to high or high to low) lead to leakage power and power loss due to the switching period leads to switching power.…”

“…Nevertheless, it is necessary to characterize all aspects of a new technology, so several studies have been performed in the area of QCA power [4][5][6][7][8]. One of the most accurate power dissipation models has been proposed by Timler and Lent [4] and an upper bound power dissipation for QCA circuits is estimated by Srivastava et al [6] based on it.…”
