Summary:Owing to its remarkable characteristics, Graphene has become a focal point of interest across numerous research domains, particularly electronics. It is being explored as a potential material for creating nanodevices that could form the basis of both traditional and novel computing circuits. In this work, we investigate the ability of Graphene Nanoribbon-based devices to perform basic quaternary logic (QL) operations. After mentioning the common practices in using Graphene for the realization of Multi-Valued-Logic circuits, we examine the possibility of utilizing the quantum mechanical phenomena that drive the functionality of small-sized Graphene Nanoribbons (GNRs) in the form of Graphene Quantum Point Contacts (GQPCs), in order to provide alternative quaternary logic circuit implementations with special characteristics.
