Optical Entanglement of Nuclear Spins in Silicon
A major breakthrough in quantum information processing is expected once “qubits”, carriers of quantum information, can be reliably integrated and controlled in silicon – the basis of today’s advanced classical information technology. Previous qubit realizations used the electronic spin of quantum dots or dopants, i.e. atoms of a different species replacing silicon in the lattice. However, this approach has only allowed for the entanglement of qubits in immediate proximity, which has hindered increasing the size of silicon-based quantum information processing systems. In OpENSpinS, these limitations will be overcome by using the nuclear spins of erbium dopants as qubits. These are…
