CHIM0089-1

Molecular logic


Duration :15h Th
Credits/ECTS :
2nd "licence" chemical sciences2
Holder(s) :Françoise Remacle
Course contents : The course begins with an Introduction to classical Boolean logic and to quantum logic. Then, the different approaches aiming at implementing logic machines at the molecular level are reviewed : (i) Molecular electronics, (ii) Implementation of logic operation by software, (ii) Implementation of concatenated logic gates at the hadware level, (iii) quantum computing. Several concrete examples are discussed  : molecular combinations circuits, finite state molecular machines, implementation of search algorithms.
Course objective : Fundamentals of
(i) Molecular logic Classical and quantal
(ii) Logic machines : Combinational circuits and finite state machines
(iii) Quantum computing
(iv) search algorithm
Prerequisites : Basic principles of quantum mechanics and of molecular physical chemistry
Workshops : None
Organization : The time table will be settled taking into the availability of the students.
