Claims20
A quantum dot device, comprising:
- a quantum well stack;
- a plurality of first gate lines above the quantum well stack;
- a plurality of second gate lines above the quantum well stack, wherein the second gate lines are perpendicular to the first gate lines;
- and
- an array of regularly spaced conductive lines.
A quantum computing device, comprising:
- a quantum processing device, wherein the quantum processing device includes a quantum well stack including a quantum well layer, a plurality of gates above the quantum well layer, and a plurality of conductive lines of a non-magnetic material;
- a non-quantum processing device, coupled to the quantum processing device, to control electrical signals applied to the plurality of conductive lines;
- and
- a memory device to store data generated during operation of the quantum processing device.
A method of operating a quantum dot device, the method comprising:
- applying voltages to first gate lines and second gate lines of a quantum dot device to form a quantum dot in a quantum well stack of the quantum dot device, wherein the first gate lines are oriented perpendicular to the second gate lines;
- and
- applying electric signals to an array of regularly spaced conductive lines to generate a magnetic field as part of causing a quantum state of the quantum dot to change.
