Abstract
The principles of design, physical and chemical characteristics underlying the operation of molecular logic gates (MLGs), which can replace the modern semiconductor elements in the information processing systems, are considered. MLGs are able to find other applications in nanotechnology, as sensors, in medical diagnosis, due to their small size, multifunctionality, and variety of input and output signals. The requirements to the structure and properties of the molecular system for its application as MLG are analyzed. The MLG design algorithm starting from the structure of compound (direct problem) is shown by individual examples. The advantages and disadvantages of MLGs, the existing problems and ways to solve them are considered.
