Strained-Si/SiGe enhancement mode structures for quantum computing.
- University of Wisconsin-Madison
Silicon is an ideal system for investigating single electron or isolated donor spins for quantum computation, due to long spin coherence times. Enhancement mode strained-silicon/silicon germanium (sSi/SiGe) devices would offer an as-yet untried path toward electron or electron/donor quantum dot systems. Thin, undoped SiGe dielectrics allow tight electrostatic confinement, as well as potential Lande g-factor engineered spin manipulation. In this talk we summarize recent progress toward sSi/SiGe enhancement mode devices on sSi on insulator, including characterization with X-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy, as well as challenges faced and progress on integration of either top-down and bottom-up donor placement approaches in a sSi/SiGe enhancement mode structure.
