Recent developments of the rapid single-flux-quantum (RSFQ) circuit family are reviewed. Elementary cells of the family can generate, pass, memorize, and reproduce picosecond …
Thermodynamics arose in the 19th century out of the attempt to understand the performance limits of steam engines in a way that would anticipate all further inventions. Claude …

Superconductor digital electronics using Josephson junctions as ultrafast switches and magnetic-flux encoding of information was proposed over 30 years ago as a sub-terahertz …
Rapid Single-Flux-Quantum (RSFQ) logic, based on the representation of digital bits by single quanta of magnetic flux in superconducting loops, may combine several-hundred …
The author describes two types of mechanical reversible logic which eliminate sliding contact. In the first type, contact between parts, when it does occur, involves only pressure. In …
Two methods of using switches to implement reversible computations are discussed. The first method has an energy dissipation which is proportional to the square of the error in the …
