Quantum shift register incorporating bifurcation
A novel and useful controlled quantum shift register for transporting particles from one quantum dot to another in a quantum structure. The shift register incorporates a succession of qdots with tunneling paths and control gates. Applying appropriate control signals to the control gates, a particle or a split quantum state is made to travel along the shift register. The shift register also includes ancillary double interaction where two pairs of quantum dots provide an ancillary function where the quantum state of one pair is replicated in the second pair. The shift register also provides bifurcation where an access path is split into two or more paths. Depending on the control pulse signals applied, quantum dots are extended into multiple paths. Control of the shift register is provided by electric control pulses. An optional auxiliary magnetic field provides additional control of the shift register.

Direct digital synthesis systems and methods
A direct digital synthesizer (DDS) is controlled by a suitably configured programmable logic device (PLD). The DDS includes a digital analog converter (DAC), and a coupled driver/buffer configured to drive relatively high capacitive loads with substantially rail to rail sinusoidal driver output signals and with little to no waveform distortion. The DAC includes a PMOS and NMOS DACs, and a switch configured to select the PMOS DAC for negative portions and the NMOS DAC for positive portions of an output analog signal generated by the DAC. The driver includes a pair of input differential amplifiers, PMOS and NMOS structures, which may be variable, and a pair of variable current sources. The PLD controls variable elements of the DDS to adjust the achievable positive and negative slew rates of the DDS, independently of one another, to reduce or eliminate risk of signal distortion while maintaining substantially stable rail to rail output.
