Quantum control in mesoscopic condensed matter systems

半导体器件是现代技术的基础。工业纳米制造技术现在可以生产接近原子尺度的设备，最先进的实验已经证明了以前难以想象的操纵单个电子的能力。该项目将开发新技术来控制这种量子电路，并将它们耦合在一起形成有用的设备。将提出新的实验来检验这些方案。该项目将为量子计算机等未来信息处理技术奠定基础。

Semiconductor devices are at the foundation of modern technology. Industrial nanofabrication techniques can now produce devices near the atomic scale, and state-of-the-art experiments have demonstrated the previously unimaginable ability to manipulate individual electrons. This project will develop new techniques to control such quantum circuits and couple them together to form useful devices. New experiments to test these schemes will be proposed. This project will provide a foundation for future information processing technologies such as quantum computers.
