NAND, NOR, XOR and XNOR). Electronic gates operate on two nominal voltages, normally 0 V and 5 V, representing the logic 0 and the logic 1, respectively. The AND gate has two inputs A and B.

By combining NOT and OR gates, you can easily make a NAND gate, an AND gate, a NOR gate, and any other logic you can dream up. Mechanical computing is decidedly old school, but not at these scales.

A research team from Skoltech and the University of Wuppertal in Germany determined that an all-optical universal logic gate ...

Section II discusses the implementation of universal basic building blocks: the NAND and the NOR Gates. Section III describes the simulation results for the leakage power and dynamic power of the ...
