We report the efforts and challenges dedicated towards building a scalable quantum computer based on Si spin qubits. We review the advantages of relying on devices fabricated in a thin film technology as their properties can be in situ tuned by the back gate voltage, which prefigures tuning capabilities in scalable qubits architectures.

The states of a boron acceptor near a Si/SiO2 interface, which bind two low-energy Kramers pairs, have exceptional properties for encoding quantum information and, with the aid of strain, both heavy hole and light hole-based spin qubits can be design
ed. Whereas a light-hole spin qubit was introduced recently [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 246801 (2016)], here we present analytical and numerical results proving that a heavy-hole spin qubit can be reliably initialised, rotated and entangled by electrical means alone. This is due to strong Rashba-like spin-orbit interaction terms enabled by the interface inversion asymmetry. Single qubit rotations rely on electric-dipole spin resonance (EDSR), which is strongly enhanced by interface-induced spin-orbit terms. Entanglement can be accomplished by Coulomb exchange, coupling to a resonator, or spin-orbit induced dipole-dipole interactions. By analysing the qubit sensitivity to charge noise, we demonstrate that interface-induced spin-orbit terms are responsible for sweet spots in the dephasing time T2* as a function of the top gate electric field, which are close to maxima in the EDSR strength, where the EDSR gate has high fidelity. We show that both qubits can be described using the same starting Hamiltonian, and by comparing their properties we show that the complex interplay of bulk and interface-induced spin-orbit terms allows a high degree of electrical control and makes acceptors potential candidates for scalable quantum computation in Si.
We demonstrate how gradient ascent pulse engineering optimal control methods can be implemented on donor electron spin qubits in Si semiconductors with an architecture complementary to the original Kanes proposal. We focus on the high-fidelity contro
lled-NOT (CNOT) gate and explicitly find its digitized control sequences by optimizing its fidelity over the external controls of the hyperfine A and exchange J interactions. This high-fidelity CNOT gate has an error of about $10^{-6}$, below the error threshold required for fault-tolerant quantum computation, and its operation time of 100ns is about 3 times faster than 297ns of the proposed global control scheme. It also relaxes significantly the stringent distance constraint of two neighboring donor atoms of 10~20nm as reported in the original Kanes proposal to about 30nm in which surface A and J gates may be built with current fabrication technology. The effects of the control voltage fluctuations, the dipole-dipole interaction and the electron spin decoherence on the CNOT gate fidelity are also discussed.
By merging bottom-up and top-down strategies we tailor graphenes electronic properties within nanometer accuracy, which opens up the possibility to design optical and plasmonic circuitries at will. In a first step, graphene electronic properties are
macroscopically modified exploiting the periodic potential generated by the self assembly of metal cluster superlattices on a graphene/Ir(111) surface. We then demonstrate that individual metal clusters can be selectively removed by a STM tip with perfect reproducibility and that the structures so created are stable even at room temperature. This enables one to nanopattern circuits down to the 2.5 nm only limited by the periodicity of the Moire-pattern, i.e., by the distance between neighbouring clusters, and different electronic and optical properties should prevail in the covered and uncovered regions. The method can be carried out on micro-meter-sized regions with clusters of different materials permitting to tune the strength of the periodic potential.
Since the 1998 proposal to build a quantum computer using dopants in semiconductors as qubits, much progress has been achieved on semiconductors nano fabrication and control of charge and spins in single dopants. However, an important problem remains
, which is the control at the atomic scale of the dopants positioning. We propose to circumvent this problem by using 2 dimensional materials as hosts. Since the first isolation of graphene in 2004, the number of new 2D materials with favorable properties for electronics has been growing. Dopants in 2 dimensional systems are more tightly bound and potentially easier to position and manipulate. Considering the properties of currently available 2D materials, we access the feasibility of such proposal in terms of the manipulability of isolated dopants (for single qubit operations) and dopant pairs (for two qubit operations). Our results indicate that a wide variety of 2D materials may perform at least as well as the currently studied bulk host for donor qubits.
Single photon emitters in silicon carbide (SiC) are attracting attention as quantum photonic systems. However, to achieve scalable devices it is essential to generate single photon emitters at desired locations on demand. Here we report the controlle
d creation of single silicon vacancy ($V_{Si}$) centres in 4H-SiC using laser writing without any post-annealing process. Due to the aberration correction in the writing apparatus and the non-annealing process, we generate single $V_{Si}$ centres with yields up to 30%, located within about 80 nm of the desired position in the transverse plane. We also investigated the photophysics of the laser writing $V_{Si}$ centres and conclude that there are about 16 photons involved in the laser writing $V_{Si}$ centres process. Our results represent a powerful tool in fabrication of single $V_{Si}$ centres in SiC for quantum technologies and provide further insights into laser writing defects in dielectric materials.
