10. In this process single electron is transferred from the middle dot to the end dot to which positive polarity of the input voltage is applied. As a result of this transfer, D2 is missing one electron. For further details on the phase plots, see Ref. 7.

12. Such signal is caused, for example, by the changing polarization in the adjacent half cell activated by a separate clock line.
