CHEMICAL REACTION NETWORK FOR PROCESSING CONCENTRATION OF CHEMICAL SPECIES

Abstract:

A technique for performing a function by utilizing chemical reactions is disclosed. In the technique, solution including an input chemical species having a concentration is provided. A chemical reaction network that includes at least a sequence of chemical reactions starting with the input chemical species to generate a plurality of output chemical species is also prepared. The solution is exposed to the chemical reaction network to present a pattern formed by the plurality of output chemical species depending on the concentration of the input chemical species.
