Abstract

A novel algorithm for working out the Kink energy of quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) circuits and their fault tolerability is introduced. In this algorithm at first with determining the input values on a specified design, the calculation between cells makes use of Kink physical relations will be managed. Therefore, the polarization of any cell and consequently output cell will be set. Then by determining missed cell(s) on the discussed circuit, the polarization of output cell will be obtained and by comparing it with safe state or software simulation, its fault tolerability will be proved. The proposed algorithm was implemented on a novel and advance fault tolerance full adder whose performance has been demonstrated. This algorithm could be implemented on any QCA circuit. Noticeably higher speed of the algorithm than simulation and traditional manual methods, expandability of this algorithm for variable circuits, beyond of four-dot square of QCA circuits, and the investigation of several damaged cells instead just one and special cell are the advantages of algorithmic action.
