Abstract
The device proposed here for future LSI´s is based on a concept different from the Boolean equations usually used for representing digital functions. The unit function of this device is simple two-way switching and can be implemented utilizing various physical effects, such as optical switching, electron-wave modulation, and single-electron transport. Several possible device structures are presented, and a simulated result for a single-electron device is described
