Si CMOS Platform for Quantum Information Processing

We report the first quantum bit device implemented on a foundry-compatible Si CMOS platform. The device, fabricated using SOI NanoWire MOSFET technology, is in essence a compact two-gate pFET. The qubit is encoded in the spin degree of freedom of a hole Quantum Dot defined by one of the Gates. Coherent spin manipulation is performed by means of an RF E-Field signal applied to the Gate itself.
