Description du projet FET - Open Afficher les objectifs du projet Masquer les objectifs du projet MOLDYNLOGIC is a high risk project exploring the implementation of combinational logic circuits and finite state computing machines based on a single molecule or assemblies of molecules. Our exploratory work, validated by experiments, has shown that it could be possible to achieve programmable machines on a single molecule and also to concatenate the logic operation of two molecules. MOLDYNLOGIC proposes more complex finite state machines, and furthermore, machines which have the ability to perform many cycles. Towards this aim, it gathers a team of European experts in synthesis and supramolecular chemistry, electrochemistry, laser chemistry and theory. The project will demonstrate the construction and assembly of chemical systems with logic and computational functionalities. Tailored organic materials including modular biomolecules and photoactive motors, transition-metal complexes and functional nanoparticles will be synthesized and assembled as supramolecular structures and their logic functions will be examined in solution and on surfaces. We envisage two types of inputs: laser excitation, including shaped pulses and voltage pulses. The logic is implemented by the dynamics of the molecular backbone, which also serves as a very fast link between different logic units of the molecular system. The processing of the information relies on an application of the quantum inter- and intra-molecular dynamics of non-stationary molecular systems, in particular of charge and energy transfer and of conformational changes. Specific studies will be undertaken to establish the structural and dynamical features relevant to logic functions and efficient concatenation. In parallel, we will theoretically investigate non Boolean logic in order to take full advantage of the complexity of molecules and of the large number of quantum states available, in a hierarchical order, which allows processing in one cycle more information than a binary, classical or quantum gate Champ scientifique natural scienceschemical scienceselectrochemistrynatural sciencesbiological sciencesbiochemistrybiomoleculesengineering and technologyelectrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineeringelectronic engineeringcomputer hardwarequantum computersengineering and technologynanotechnologynano-materialsnatural sciencesphysical sciencesopticslaser physics Mots‑clés Nanotechnology Programme(s) FP6-IST - Information Society Technologies: thematic priority under the specific programme "Integrating and strengthening the European research area" (2002-2006).
