CLASSICAL RADIO-FREQUENCY CIRCUITS Communications Hergé, Moulinsart 1940's : MHz 2000's : GHz Computation Sony US Army Photo WHAT IS A RADIO-FREQUENCY CIRCUIT? A RF CIRCUIT IS A NETWORK OF ELECTRICAL ELEMENTS node n element loop branch np V np I np node p TWO COLLECTIVE DYNAMICAL VARIABLES CHARACTERIZE THE STATE OF EACH DIPOLE ELEMENT AT EVERY INSTANT: Voltage across the element: Current through the element: () Vnp t = E d n I t = j dσ np p () n p 3

CONSTITUTIVE RELATIONS EACH ELEMENT IS TAKEN FROM A FINITE SET OF ELEMENT TYPES EACH ELEMENT TYPE IS CHARACTERIZED BY A RELATION BETWEEN VOLTAGE AND CURRENT LINEAR NON-LINEAR inductance: V = L di/dt diode: I=G(V) capacitance: resistance: I = C dv/dt V = R I transistor: s g d I ds = G(I gs,v ds, ) V ds I gs = 0 QUANTUM INFORMATION ECONOMY suppose a function f j { 0,1023} k = f ( j) { 0,1023} Classically, need 1000 10-bit registers (10,000 bits) to store information about this function and to work on it. Quantum-mechanically, a 20-qubit register can suffice! Ψ = 1 2 N /2 N 2 1 j= 0 ( ) j f j 10 q-bits 10 q-bits Function encoded in a single quantum state of small register!
