Federation Fellowships - Grant ID: FF0241391

Funded Activity Summary

Fault-tolerant operation and scale-up of a silicon quantum computer beyond laboratory prototypes. The Centre for Quantum Computer Technology's mission is the construction of a prototype few-qubit silicon quantum processor to demonstrate the feasibility of this breakthrough technology for massively parallel computation. This application will initiate a new strategic research program within the Centre to address the key issue of interfacing laboratory with silicon CMOS microelectronics. The Hybrid Quantum- Conventional Processor will provide calibrated gate control and readout of individual buried atom quantum bits,to run logic operations with quantum error correction. This program will require a deep understanding of physics issues to develop fault tolerant coherent control of qubit arrays for real applications.
