Design of reversible parity generator and checker for the implementation of nano-communication systems in quantum-dot cellular automata

Complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology may face so much problems in future due to the smaller size of transistors and increase in circuits’ volume and chips temperature. A new technology that can be a good alternative to CMOS circuits is quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA). These technologies have features such as a very low power consumption, high speed and small dimensions. In nano-communication system, error detection and correction in a receiver message are major factors. In addition, circuit reversibility in QCA helps designs a lot. In this research, generator and checker circuit of the reversible parity and eventually their nano-communication system are designed reversible using odd parity bit. The proposed circuits and the theoretical values are tested by QCADesigner 2.0.3 simulator to show the correct operation of the circuits. According to the simulation results, the proposed circuits compared with the previous structure improve delay by 90–75–35% in generator and checker structures of parity and their reversibility of nano-communication system, respectively. The proposed circuits are used in nano-transmitters and nano-receivers.

Zeroing in on ethical issues in nanotechnology

Setting aside exaggerated notions of both the benefits and harms to be expected from nanotechnologies, we need to focus ethical investigation on specific initiatives at the nano scale that are already underway or planned. The aims are to anticipate ethical issues likely to arise in specific cases, to foster sensitivity to ethical issues and responsibility among nano specialists and policy makers, and to stimulate interchange between nano specialists and members of the public so that the public can become involved. After clarifying what the term "nanotechnology" embraces and looking at cautionary lessons from experience with the information technologies and biotechnology, the discussion turns to the importance of anticipating consequences, intended and unintended. Although specific nano options to consider are lacking, a brief survey indicates the issues to watch out for: preventable harms, conflicts about justice and fairness, respect for persons, and more specifically, safeguards for workers in new production processes, intellectual property concerns, preservation of university values in university/industry relationships, and conflicts of interest. Three main fronts of activity are needed to address ethical issues: 1) incorporating ethics research into nano research and development enterprises; 2) devising mechanisms to involve the public so that their perspectives and concerns feed back into research and development; and 3) initiating educational efforts at every level addressing both technical aspects and ethics and social implications aspects.     

Recent Progress in Communication Theory in Japan

Noise in DMOS transistors in a BICMOS-technology

An experimental and theoretical study of the 1/f noise and the thermal noise in double-diffused MOS (DMOS) transistors in a BICMOS-technology has been carried out. By using an analytical model that consists of an enhancement MOS transistor in series with a depletion MOS transistor and a resistance, and by attributing noise sources to each device, the noise in DMOS devices is simulated accurately. Three distinct regions of operation are defined: enhancement transistor control, depletion transistor control and the linear region. In the first region, the noise is strictly determined by the enhancement transistor. It was found that the 1/f noise in this region is caused by mobility fluctuations and is very low. In the depletion transistor control region both transistors influence the total noise. Here the 1/f noise is dominated by the depletion transistor. The series resistance is only of importance in the linear region

Autosolitons in InSb in a magnetic field

It is shown experimentally that a longitudinal magnetic field of comparatively small magnitude substantially changes the velocity of autosolitons in indium antimonide samples and produces an appreciable redistribution of the electric field of these autosolitons. In this case, the frequency and amplitude of the current oscillations in the external circuit of the sample increases or decreases, depending on the direction of the longitudinal magnetic field. Fiz.

Propagation in Broadside-Coupled Suspended-Substrate Stripline in E-Plane

The spectral-domain analysis is applied to the derivation of the propagation characteristics of the even and odd mode, for the broad-sidecoupled suspended-substrate stripline (BCSSS). The characteristic impedance, based on the current-power definition, as well as the effective permittivity are evaluated. Numerical results are presented illustrating the effects of several different dimensional parameters. Numerical results indicate a large spread between even- and odd-mode impedance for thin substrates (D/A < 0.045) and stripwidths ranging 0.046<= W/B<= 0.47, suggesting tight coupling. Negligible frequency dependence on odd-mode impedance is evident, as well as significant frequency effects on even-mode impedance. Considerable dispersion is shown to be present in the odd mode for wider strips. Measured results for a low-pass filter and cascaded transitions are presented.     

Two-wave mixing in reflection holograms in photorefractivematerials

The intensity and phase of two counterpropagating optical beams in a photorefractive material are investigated both numerically and by using an approximate analytical theory. It is shown that in the reflection regime they are two situations where coupling between the beams may be spatially dependent; in the case of nearly degenerate two-wave mixing, and when a photocurrent is present. In these situations, previously obtained results may need significant correction
