Using Electrons on a Helium Film as Qubits

Abstract

Electrons, with energy less than 1 eV, when sprayed onto the surface of liquid helium become bound to the surface by the electrostatic image charge in the liquid. Their mobility along the surface is extremely high so that their motion in the plane is essentially unbound. This means that each electron is in a potential like that of a 1D hydrogen atom.
