Alternative concept of logic : The ensemble of DNA on the surface of silica nanoparticles could be used to design ternary logic gates, which go beyond common binary operations. Herein, by assigning more than two possible states to input and output signals, thereby implementing multi‐valued logic, the densities of information can be increased (see scheme).
