Understanding a Bisferrocene Molecular QCA Wire

Molecular QCA are considered among the most promising beyond CMOS devices. Frequency as well as self-assembly characteristics are the features that make them most attractive. Several challenges restrain them for being exploited from a practical point of view in the near future, not only for the difficulties at the technological level, but for the inappropriateness of the tools used when studying and predicting their behavior.
