Quantum computers, which perform their operations on coherent superpositions of quantum states, or "qubits", rather than on the more normal "1" and "0" bits of our now ubiquitous digital computers, hold out the promise of solving certain classes of problems much faster than any conceivable digital computer. This promise has resulted in an enormous worldwide interest in developing a quantum computer technology. Much of this interest is focused on semiconductor-based approaches, and within that subset much effort is going into schemes for silicon-based quantum computation, given the highly developed state of silicon materials science and device processing technology.

量子计算机在量子态的相干叠加或“量子位”上执行操作，而不是在我们现在无处不在的数字计算机的更正常的“1”和“0”位上执行操作，它有望比任何可以想象的数字计算机更快地解决某些类别的问题。 这一承诺导致了全世界对开发量子计算机技术的巨大兴趣。 这种兴趣主要集中在基于半导体的方法上，并且在该子集中，考虑到硅材料科学和器件处理技术的高度发展状态，许多努力都是针对硅基量子计算的方案。
