逻辑门是计算机的基本数字元件。我们建立了热逻辑门，可以执行类似的操作，因为他们的电子同行。热逻辑门是基于非线性晶格，由于其温度依赖的功率谱表现出非常有趣的现象。我们证明，声子，热载体，也可以用来携带信息和相应的处理。讨论了纳米尺度实验的可能性。
Logic gates are basic digital elements for computers. We build up thermal logic gates that can perform similar operations as their electronic counterparts. The thermal logic gates are based on nonlinear lattices, which exhibit very intriguing phenomena due to their temperature dependent power spectra. We demonstrate that phonons, the heat carriers, can also be used to carry information and processed accordingly. The possibility of nanoscale experiments is discussed.
