A novel multi-terminal quantum transistor device is presented that leverages coherent scattering and multi-path interference to enable multi-input, multi-output signal processing beyond the conventional binary switching paradigm. A tight-binding framework is employed to model a disordered two-dimensional lattice, and quantum transport is analyzed using scattering matrix formalism. The device demonstrates energydependent transmission characteristics with channelresolved information capacities exceeding one bit per cycle. It is proposed that by scaling such devices into dense VLSI architectures, a single quantum transistor element may replace hundreds of classical transistors, thus paving the way for a new class of semiconductor devices with exponentially enhanced computational density.
