QUANTUM COHERENT SWITCH UTILIZING COMMENSURATE NANOELECTRODE AND CHARGE DENSITY PERIODICITIES

摘要

A quantum coherent switch having a substrate formed from a density wave (DW) material capable of having a periodic electron density modulation or spin density modulation, a dielectric layer formed onto a surface of the substrate that is orthogonal to an intrinsic wave vector of the DW material; and structure for applying an external spatially periodic electrostatic potential over the dielectric layer.
