"CMOS technology has been at the forefront of the semiconductor industry for decades, but according to Moore's law, the number of transistors per unit area almost doubles every two years. As the number of transistors increases, methods must be sought to reduce the dimensions of transistors and designed circuits in general. Reducing the dimensions of the transistors themselves causes problems such as short-channel effects, increased leakage current, and increased gate resistance. The stated problems lead to the search for an alternative technology for MOS transistors. Suggested technologies that can be used to replace CMOS technology include: quantum dot cell automation, single electron transistors, carbon nanotubes, molecular electronics etc. Among the technologies mentioned, the technology of cellular automation of quantum dots has received the most attention. The reason for this technology is the design of digital circuits with Nano dimensions. Quantum dot cellular automation technology is one of the best designs in terms of occupied surface area, latency and energy consumption."--
