| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this project, we aimed to verify the minimum energy consumption in computation, known as the Landauer limit, by using adiabatic quantum flux parametron (QFP) circuits. In order to investigate the Landauer limit, the energy consumption of the adiabatic QFP gate was measured by using a superconducting resonator coupled with an adiabatic QFP gate. In addition, we proposed a new reversible QFP logic gate, whose entropy is not changed during the computation. The results showed that the bit energy of the adiabatic QFP logic gate is estimated to be 10 zJ in experiment. It was also verified that logically and physically reversible logic gate can be realized by using adiabatic QFP circuits.
