Funded Activity Summary
A new spin on semiconductor quantum information technology. Future advances in computer technology will exploit quantum physics to deliver increased computational power, either through new materials or quantum information approaches. However although half of the 100 billion transistors in your iphone use holes to operate, most semiconductor quantum research has focussed on electrons. Holes have completely different quantum spin properties than electrons; recent advances show holes have highly desirable properties for spin based quantum information. This project will work with leading European laboratories to develop quantum computer components based on hole spin in quantum dots in industrially relevant semiconductors, and demonstrate a pathway towards a scalable quantum computer architecture.Funded Activity Details
