Foil 86 Superconducting Technology -- Present

From CPS615-Introduction-Course,Driving Technology and HPCC Current Status and Futures CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 96. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
New ideas have resurrected this concept using RSFQ -- Rapid Single Flux Quantum -- approach
This naturally gives a bit which is 0 or 1 (or in fact n units!)
This gives interesting circuits of similar structure to CMOS systems but with a clock speed of order 100-300GHz -- factor of 100 better than CMOS which will asymptote at around 1 GHz (= one nanosecond cycle time)
