Topological superconductivity and spin electronics in silicon and germanium

该项目将利用材料生长、理论物理和微磁技术的最新突破，为未来的量子器件和拓扑量子计算机设计和构建一个新的平台。我们将不使用特殊材料，而是用传统的硅和锗半导体制造混合超导半导体器件，使用与工业上用于制造集成电路相同的纳米制造技术。其结果将是一种全新的方法来托管拓扑模式，在一个可以扩展的架构中，使用工业兼容的半导体来制造基于拓扑的量子位。

This project will exploit recent breakthroughs in materials growth, theoretical physics and micromagnet technology to design and build a new platform for future quantum devices and topological quantum computers. Instead of using exotic materials, we will fabricate hybrid superconductor-semiconductor devices with conventional silicon and germanium semiconductors, using the same nanofabrication techniques that industry uses to create integrated circuits. The outcome will be an entirely new approach to hosting topological modes, in an architecture that can be scaled to make topological based qubits, using industrially compatible semiconductors.
