Distribution of heat generated in adiabatic transitions
reversible logic operations are adiabatic transitions;
potential reversible circuits are based on small, mesoscopic or nano, structures
large role of fluctuations
Example: driven SET transitions

Conclusion: irreversibly generated heat vanishes not only on average but for each individual transition protocol.

ConclusionsGaussian distribution of the generated heat in the reversible transformations with the width related to average by classical thermal FDT. SET structures can be developed into a prototype of thermodynamically reversible devices and a promising tool for studying basic thermodynamics, e.g., non-equilibrium fluctuation relations, demonstration of the Maxwell’s demon, … ; but at low frequencies. nSQUID arrays would add an advantage of developed support electronics allowing the high-frequency operation both for the development of practical reversible circuits and for fundamental studies of the dynamics of information/entropy in electronic devices, e.g., in thermodynamics of quantum measurements.
