Final Report Summary - DISCOVERTABLE (Re-discovering a Periodic Table of Elementary Circuit Elements)
In DiscoverTable, Chua (the fellow, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_O._Chua(odnośnik otworzy się w nowym oknie)) and Wang (the local host) have successfully extended their advocated tables to cover not only the “ideal” elements but also non-ideal elements with additional state variables, which reflects the latest advance in modern information technology (IT) because most of real-world molecular and nano-electronic elements have multiple state variables. The importance of a circuit element table is similar to that of Mendeleev’s Periodic Table of Chemical Elements in Chemistry. Such a table helps us categorise the existing circuit elements and predict new circuit elements.
Supersymmetry in Circuit Theory has been proposed, in which each elementary circuit element has a supersymmetric element as its superpartner. Supported by intrinsic mathematical relationships, this supersymmetry is found to be aesthetically beautiful and practically useful.
Similar to Mendeleev’s periodic table of chemical elements, the supersymmetric periodic table of circuit elements could be used to not only categorize the existing elements logically but also predict new elements. As an example, negative memristor was predicted and its features and potential applications have been investigated.
