Patent ID: 8358455

Claim:
A method for insuring reliability of data and reliability of data processing in plasmonic quantum computational data representation components, and/or plasmonic quantum computational data operation components, comprising: a. providing a structure of plasmonic quantum computational data representation components, and/or plasmonic quantum computational data operation components, b. providing a primary obstruction, or primary obstructions of photons and/or plasmons within the structure, c. the primary obstruction or the primary obstructions triggering a further obstruction, or further obstructions of photons and/or plasmons at a location or locations along a path or paths that photons and/or plasmons would traverse from said primary obstruction, or from said primary obstructions, as if said primary obstruction, or as if said primary obstructions had malfunctioned and been absent or not in full effect, whereby said plasmonic quantum computational data representation components, and/or said plasmonic quantum computational data operation components produce correct results even if some said plasmonic quantum computational data representation components, and/or some said plasmonic quantum computational data operation components lack proper functionality of said primary obstruction, or said primary obstructions.
