Molecular quantum cellular automata (QCA) devices are typically based on the square planar two-electron mixed valence (MV) molecules playing the role of QCA cells. The functional properties of such cells are determined by the Coulomb repulsion between the two excess electrons, which stabilize antipodal charge configurations that encoding binary inf...
