Abstract :
A 2-D array of electric dipoles contacted by suitable electrodes is shown to offer paramount properties necessary for intelligent processing of information. On the basis of a simplified mechanism that models the interactions among the dipoles and between the dipoles and the external electrodes, the possibility of transforming the 2-D dipole array into an elementary molecular processor is explored
