Quantum computing

Cryptography: perfectly secure communication.

Searching, especially algorithmic searching

Simulating quantum-mechanical systems efficiently.

Efficiency: factorising a 300 digits number in 1 sec / 150,000 years for a classical computer

Quantum Qubit

Double dots = qubit: leads on resonance + choice of gate voltage: (0,1) or (1,0)

spin qubit: 1 e- out of resonance

Electron Entangler

Superconducting lead = source of Cooper pairs

Correlated e- on the dots but spatially separated =

EPR pairsBut noise effect

Operation on Qubit

Novel entanglement mechanisms based on the prolific combination of charge and spin qubits.

The spin entanglement can be controlled by the charge qubit. (Effect of charge noise will be neglected)

Can create an EPR pair but affected by

noise.

Can control spin entanglement by the

state of charge qubit.

Experimentaly feasible (CNT…).
