Abstract

Ionisation of one of a pair of dopant atoms in a substrate creates a double well potential, and a charge qubit is realised by the location of one or more electrons or holes within this potential. The dopant atoms may comprise phosphorous atoms, located in a silicon substrate. A solid state quantum computer may be formed using a plurality of pairs of dopant atoms, corresponding gate electrodes, and read-out devices comprising single electron transistors.
