It's not an easy subject, but there's work going on, largely at IBM, to try to use quantum phenomena to perform computations. Cellular automata refers to a field of computing theory dealing with computations done by arrays of computers. If someone figures out how to grow crystals of quantum dots and do useful computations with them, you'll have a tremendous amount of computing power in an extremely small space.
Moore's Law will run out of steam as transistors shrink to a small number of atoms. The only alternate paths to further improvement that we've thought of so far are quantum or some other form of molecular computing.
