Photochemical Logic Gate - Creating The NOT Gate

Creating The NOT Gate

To stop the electron transfer chain completing, producing output signals, the input of a photon, h, is used to produce a ‘pump probe spectroscopy’ effect by promoting an electron in an electron transfer chain. The fall of the pump probe promoted electron produces an output that is quenched down an electron transfer chain.

An alternative is similar to the AND gate alternative; an input causes a change in molecule structure breaking the electron transfer chain by not allowing the smooth energy transfer of electrons.

Famous quotes containing the words creating and/or gate:

    “It is useless to contend with the irresistible power of Time, which goes on continually creating by a process of constant destruction.”
    —E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)

    “Duns at his lordship’s gate began to meet;
    And brickdust Moll had screamed through half the street.
    The turnkey now his flock returning sees,
    Duly let out a-nights to steal for fees:
    The watchful bailiffs take their silent stands,
    And schoolboys lag with satchels in their hands.”
    —Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
