The arrival of the era of nanotechnology was stimulated to the greatest extent by the high rate of development of CMOS-microelectronics. Currently, complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor components have reached quantum-technological limits. In digital nanoelectronics, one bit of information is given by one electron. In the work, computer design using computer-aided design QCADisigner of single-electron arithmetic-logic nanocircuits based on quantum cellular automata is performed. Fragments of three- and five-inputs universal majority elements are used as the basis. It has been proven that the defining property of this class of nanodevices is the group behavior of cells, which is reproduced by the logic of majority functions. The development single-electron full nanoadder and double-bits multiplier have the smallest possible technological nanosizes, ultra-high speed and minimum switching energy consumption.
