Single molecule logic gates based on quantum architectures can overcome several drawbacks of classical and semi-classical molecular electronics circuits, like the exponential decay of the current through the molecular circuit and the intrinsic difficulties of obtaining molecular transistors with a power gain. The concept of quantum Hamiltonian computing (QHC) represents a new promising strategy to construct universal single molecule Boolean logic gates.
In a new paper published in ACS Nano (DOI: 10.1021/acsnano.7b06650) scientists from the Single Molecule Machines Group at the Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden (cfaed), the Institute for Materials Science at the Technische Universität Dresden, and the CEMES-CNRS in Toulouse demonstrated the working principle of a single molecule NAND logic gate based on a QHC design.

The European FET OPEN project MEMO (Mechanics with Molecules) is organizing the 2nd international Nanocar Race (Nanocar Race II), which will take place in 2021 at the CEMES-CNRS in Toulouse, France. The pre-registration for Nanocar Race II is now open and will close at the end of June 2018. The race is organized by an international committee around the cfaed research group "Single Molecule Machines" under the direction of Dr. Francesca Moresco.

A group of physicists from the cfaed at TU Dresden, together with researchers from Japan, were able to demonstrate in a study how the doping of organic semiconductors can be simulated and experimentally verified. The study has now been published in “Nature Materials”.
In semiconductor technology, doping refers to the intentional introduction of impurities (also known as dopants) into a layer or into the intrinsic semiconductor of an integrated circuit. These dopants are deliberate modifications of the semiconductor, with which the behavior of the electrons and thus the electrical conductivity of the intrinsic material can be controlled. Even the smallest amounts of dopants can have a strong impact on the electrical conductivity. Electronic modifications by doping make semiconductors functional in all major electronic devices – the backbone of the electronics industry.

On Saturday, the "DRESDEN EXCELLENCE AWARD. Science Award of the City of Dresden" with a total prize money of 30,000 euros was awarded for the first time. With this prize, which will be awarded annually in future, the state capital of Dresden, together with the network "Dresden - City of Science", would like to provide ideal support for TU Dresden's application within the “Excellence Strategy”. Authors are honoured for outstanding scientific theses that are of particular importance for the City of Dresden and Dresden's perception as a scientific location. In total, there were four award winners in the categories Bachelor, Diplom/Master, Doctorate and Habilitation.
The Cluster of Excellence Center for Advancing Electronics Dresden (cfaed) at TU Dresden is pleased and proud to announce that Dr. Tim Erdmann, a former doctoral student of the cluster, is among the prize winners. cfaed's Executive Board congratulates Dr. Erdmann on this great success.
