Evaluation of the effect of fabrication tolerances on the ground-state energy of electrostatically defined quantum dots

چکیده
We have investigated the precision achievable, with state-of-the-art lithography, in the fabrication of quantum dots for the realization of quantum cellular automaton cells, and we have compared it with the requirements for proper device operation. Our conclusion is that a simple ‘hole-array’ approach is not feasible, and that individual tuning of each dot is necessary. c © 2000 Academic Press

Effect of Temperature and Pressure on Correlation Energy in a Triplet State of a Two Electron Spherical Quantum Dot
The combined effect of hydrostatic pressure and temperature on correlation energy in a triplet state of two electron spherical quantum dot with square well potential is computed. The result is presented taking GaAs dot as an example. Our result shows the correlation energies are i)negative in the triplet state contrast to the singlet state ii) it increases with increase in pressure iii)further...
متن کاملCombined effects of pressure, temperature, and magnetic field on the ground state of donor impurities in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum heterostructure
In the present work, the exact diagonalization method had been implemented to calculate the ground state energy of shallow donor impurity located at finite distance along the growth axis in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure in the presence of a magnetic field taken to be along z direction. The impurity binding energy of the ground state had been calculated as a function of confining frequency and mag...

متن کاملA ug 1 99 8 Modeling and manufacturability assessment of bistable quantum - dot cells
We have investigated the behavior of bistable cells made up of four quantum dots and occupied by two electrons, in the presence of realistic confinement potentials produced by depletion gates on top of a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostruc-ture. Such a cell represents the basic building block for logic architectures based on the concept of Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA) and of ground state computation, wh...
