A label-free nanopore platform uses programmable DNA circuits to build versatile molecular logic gates, forming a universal basis for scalable DNA computing and advanced biosensing applications.

In conventional electronics, a NOT gate inverts the value of a bit of information from 1 to 0 or from 0 to 1. Such binary information could also be stored in two-state quantum systems, such as the ...

DNA is often referred to as the building block of life. Now scientists from Imperial College London have demonstrated that DNA (and bacteria) can be used to create the fundamental building blocks of a ...

Towards ultrafast logic gates (Courtesy: University of Rochester illustration / Michael Osadciw) The first logic gate to operate at femtosecond timescales could help usher in an era of information ...

DNA-based logic gates that could carry out calculations inside the body have been constructed for the first time. The work brings the prospect of injectable biocomputers programmed to target diseases ...

A chip that contains one logic gate or a small number of logic gates. Although thousands of gates are routinely placed on a single chip, discrete logic chips with only one or two gates are also ...

A lot of elementary electronic texts use water as an analogy for electricity. You know, pressure is voltage, flow is current, and pipe diameter is resistance. It is ironic, then, that some people use ...

A long-standing quest for science and technology has been to develop electronics and information processing that operate near the fastest timescales allowed by the laws of nature. A promising way to ...
