Abstract

Silicon quantum dot devices based on a dual gate technique in a silicon MOS technology are fabricated. Two lateral gates deplete the inversion layer which is induced by a top gate, thus forming a quantum dot. The dot is located between the source and drain of a long channel MOSFET. The dot is fabricated with a 9 nm thermal oxide, deposition of the lateral gates, a 60 nm plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposited oxide and Al top gates. Lithographic dimensions of the dots ranged from 200 nm to 40 nm, and these are defined by high resolution electron beam lithography.
