However,TCAM cells based on conventional silicon-based devices suffer from structural complexity and large footprintlimitations. Here, we demonstrate an ultrafast nonvolatile TCAM cell based on the MoTe2/hBN/multilayergraphene (MLG) van der Waals heterostructure using a top-gated partial floating-gate field-effect transistor(PFGFET) architecture. Based on its ambipolar transport properties, the carrier type in the source/drain andcentral channel regions of the MoTe2 channel can be efficiently tuned by the control gate and top gate, respectively,enabling the reconfigurable operation of the device in either memory or FET mode. When working inthe memory mode, it achieves an ultrafast 60 ns programming/erase speed with a current on-off ratio of ∼105,excellent retention capability, and robust endurance. When serving as a reconfigurable transistor, unipolar p-typeand n-type FETs are obtained by adopting ultrafast 60 ns control-gate voltage pulses with different polarities.The monolithic integration of memory and logic within a single device enables the content-addressable memory(CAM) functionality. Finally, by integrating two PFGFETs in parallel, a TCAM cell with a high current ratioof ∼10^(5) between the match and mismatch states is achieved without requiring additional peripheral circuitry.These results provide a promising route for the design of high-performance TCAM devices for future in-memorycomputing applications.展开更多

文摘We propose a method of controlling the dc-SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) systemby changing the gate voltages, which controls the amplitude of the fictitious magnetic fields Bz, and the externallyapplied current that produces the piercing magnetic fiux φx for the dc-SQUID system. We have also introduced aphysical model for the dc-SQUID system. Using this physical model, one can obtain the non-adiabatic geometric phasegate for the single qubit and the non-adiabatic conditional geometric phase gate (controlled NOT gate) for the twoqubits. It is shown that when the gate voltage and the externally applied current of the dc-SQUID system satisfies anappropriate constraint condition, the charge state evolution can be controlled exactly on a dynamic phase free path. Thenon-adiabatic evolution of the charge states is given as well.

文摘In this article the inherent computational power of the quantum entangled cluster states examined by measurement-based quantum computations is studied. By defining a common framework of rules for measurement of quantum entangled cluster states based on classical computations, the precise and detailed meaning of the computing power of the correlations in the quantum cluster states is made. This study exposes a connection, arousing interest, between the infringement of the realistic models that are local and the computing power of the quantum entangled cluster states.

文摘Photonic hyper-parallel quantum gates play a critical role in high-capacity quantum communication and fast quantum computing.Here,based on photon scattering in onedimensional(1D)waveguides,we present some heralded schemes for constructing four-qubit hyper-controlled-not(hyper-CNOT)gates in two-photon systems.The qubits are encoded on both the polarization and spatial-mode degrees of freedoms(DOFs)of the photons,which can simplify the quantum circuit and reduce the quantum resource consumption.In our schemes,the faulty scattering events between photons and emitters caused by system imperfections can be filtered out and discarded.That is,our protocols for hyper-CNOT gates work in a heralded way.Our calculations show that,with great progress in the emitter-waveguide systems,our photonic hyper-CNOT gates may be experimentally feasible.

文摘One-way quantum computation focuses on initially generating an entangled cluster state followed by a sequence of measurements with classical communication of their individual outcomes.Recently,a delayed-measurement approach has been applied to replace classical communication of individual measurement outcomes.In this work,by considering the delayed-measurement approach,we demonstrate a modified one-way CNOT gate using the on-cloud superconducting quantum computing platform:Quafu.The modified protocol for one-way quantum computing requires only three qubits rather than the four used in the standard protocol.Since this modified cluster state decreases the number of physical qubits required to implement one-way computation,both the scalability and complexity of the computing process are improved.Compared to previous work,this modified one-way CNOT gate is superior to the standard one in both fidelity and resource requirements.We have also numerically compared the behavior of standard and modified methods in large-scale one-way quantum computing.Our results suggest that in a noisy intermediate-scale quantum(NISQ)era,the modified method shows a significant advantage for one-way quantum computation.
文摘Three recent breakthroughs due to AI in arts and science serve as motivation:An award winning digital image,protein folding,fast matrix multiplication.Many recent developments in artificial neural networks,particularly deep learning(DL),applied and relevant to computational mechanics(solid,fluids,finite-element technology)are reviewed in detail.Both hybrid and pure machine learning(ML)methods are discussed.Hybrid methods combine traditional PDE discretizations with ML methods either(1)to help model complex nonlinear constitutive relations,(2)to nonlinearly reduce the model order for efficient simulation(turbulence),or(3)to accelerate the simulation by predicting certain components in the traditional integration methods.Here,methods(1)and(2)relied on Long-Short-Term Memory(LSTM)architecture,with method(3)relying on convolutional neural networks.Pure ML methods to solve(nonlinear)PDEs are represented by Physics-Informed Neural network(PINN)methods,which could be combined with attention mechanism to address discontinuous solutions.Both LSTM and attention architectures,together with modern and generalized classic optimizers to include stochasticity for DL networks,are extensively reviewed.Kernel machines,including Gaussian processes,are provided to sufficient depth for more advanced works such as shallow networks with infinite width.Not only addressing experts,readers are assumed familiar with computational mechanics,but not with DL,whose concepts and applications are built up from the basics,aiming at bringing first-time learners quickly to the forefront of research.History and limitations of AI are recounted and discussed,with particular attention at pointing out misstatements or misconceptions of the classics,even in well-known references.Positioning and pointing control of a large-deformable beam is given as an example.
