| 内容記述 | Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) circuit technology has sustainedthe exponential growth of computing power for more than 20 years. However, it hasbeen estimated that the power consumption of a next-generation supercomputer willexceed the power supplied from a single power plant. This indicates the need to dramaticallyimprove the energy efficiency of logic devices to achieve future high-endcomputers.As an extremely energy-efficient logic, we proposed and have been investigatingadiabatic quantum-flux-parametron (AQFP) devices. Due to adiabatic switching operations,its bit energy (energy dissipation per bit) can go below Ic 0, where Ic is acritical current of a Josephson junction and 0 is a single-flux-quantum (SFQ). Ic 0corresponds to the energy dissipated at every 2 phase transition in conventional nonadiabaticsuperconductor logics.We have two objectives in this study. One is to reveal physical energy bounds oncomputation through investigation of the energy efficiency of AQFP logic. The otheris to develop fundamental circuits necessary for energy-efficient computing systemsusing AQFP logic.First, we numerically and experimentally demonstrated the sub-Ic 0 bit-energyoperations of AQFP gates to show that AQFP gates operate in adiabatic modes. Weinvestigated the dependence of energy dissipation and operation margins on circuitparameters. After optimizing the parameters, we calculated the bit energy and the biterror rate at 4.2 K to verify the sub-Ic 0 bit-energy operations at a finite temperature.Additionally, we measured the bit energy of an AQFP gate using a superconductorresonator-based method.Secondly, we numerically demonstrated the sub-kBT bit-energy operations, wherekB is the Boltzmann constant and T is temperature, to show that AQFP gates can operatebeyond thermodynamic energy bounds. We investigated the dependence of energydissipation on operation frequencies and damping conditions of Josephson junctions.By using underdamped junctions, we confirmed the sub-kBT bit-energy operationsat a finite temperature thorough circuit simulation. This result indicates that thereis no minimum energy dissipation required for the operations of AQFP gates unlessthe entropy of the system decreases, which corresponds to the Landauer’s argument on the minimum energy dissipation for computation. Also, we discussed quantummechanicalenergy bounds and experimentally demonstrated AQFP gates with underdampedjunctions.Additionally, we investigated reversible computing using AQFP logic with underdampedjunctions, in order to deal with an important but unresolved question: “Isreversible computing achievable by using practical devices?” We built a purely reversiblegate by using AQFP gates, which we designated as the reversible quantumflux-parametron (RQFP) gate. We calculated its energy dissipation and confirmed thatthere is no minimum energy dissipation for reversible logic operations using RQFPgates. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first calculation results that show nominimum energy dissipation in reversible computing that use practical circuit structures.Moreover, our experimental results have demonstrated the logical and physicalreversibility of the RQFP gate. We believe that this is the first demonstration thatshows both logical and physical reversibility using practical devices.Finally, we proposed a novel energy-efficient latch for AQFP logic, which we designatedas the quantum-flux-latch (QFL). Latches are necessary circuitries in largecomputing systems but had been missing in AQFP logic. We discussed its energyefficiency through simulation and experimentally demonstrated correct operations ofthe QFL and a 1-bit shift register using QFLs. Also, we proposed high-speed test circuitsusing QFLs and experimentally demonstrated logic operations of AQFP circuitsat high speed.We strongly believe that our results showed the extremely high energy efficiency ofAQFP logic. These results will move the AQFP logic to practical usage as extremelyenergy-efficient integrated circuits. | |||||
