Towards the fabrication of Silicon Nanowires with Quantum Dot as a Platform for experimentation in Quantum Tecnologies (oral contribution to E-MRS)

In the following video, it is explained the last advances we have made in our research project. Our main objective is to build a semiconductor qbit platform for experimentation. We are exploring two main nano-fabrication approaches:

- Mix and Match between electron beam lithography (EBL) and optical lithography

- Focused ion beam implantation (FIB-i) and EBL



We can produce single charge transistors at low temperature but also to scale the fabrication to wafer level, getting more than 5000 independently connected NWs in a single wafer.

MNE 2021 - Turin (Italy) Silicon Nanowires

As introduced in the last post, we are presenting our last results in the international conference Micro Nano Engineering (MNE). This year the conference is hosted in Turin (Italy) and its the first hybrid (in-situ and also on-line) conference Im participating. The last day of the conference I presented the following work. Here, we presented a new approach for advanced electronic devices and mechanical resonators based in silicon nanowires with embedded quantum dots. Here there is the abstract:

MNE 2021 - Turin (Italy)

We are very happy to be presenting our last results in the international conference Micro Nano Engineering (MNE). This year the conference is hosted in Turin (Italy) and its the first hybrid (in-situ and also on-line) conference Im participating.
Yesterday we had been presenting two oral contributions and a poster. If you are interested to see what are we working on I invite you to their abstract ;)
- New solutions for photovoltaics:

- Three level replication of polymer structures:

- New resist Medusa:

There is still another presentation for tomorrow where I am going to show our last advances towards quantum computing. Our approach consists to embed quantum dots inside silicon nanowires and I think it is a very promising work. Hope to see you there!

European researcher's night: Dissemination poster of the project I am working in

This is an outreach dissemination poster (for general audiences) in order to explain the project I am working in. This time the poster has been writen in catalan, it is expected its presentation during the European Researcher's Night. The event aims to bring researchers closer to the general public and to increase public awareness of research and innovation activities, creating an understanding of the impact of researchers’ work on citizens’ daily lives and encouraging young people to embark on research careers.
