All-semiconductor Josephson junction device for qubit applications

Abstract:

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a quantum mechanical device includes a monolithic crystalline structure. The monolithic crystalline structure includes a first region doped to provide a first superconducting region, and a second region doped to provide a second superconducting region, the second superconducting region being separated from the first superconducting region by an undoped crystalline region. The first and second superconducting regions and the undoped crystalline region form a Josephson junction.
