Quantum state creation and control in scalable two-dimensional systems for information processing and sensing

Abstract

We propose to develop new solid state platforms for full quantum state control by exploiting theinterplay between single spin defects and emergent phenomena in two dimensional (2D) systemssuch as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and related ultrathin mate"rials (e.g. the hightemperature superconductor, single unit cell FeSe). By creating hybrid heterogeneous systems thatembed and int""erface isolated defect spins in host 2D materials with disparate electronic, magneticand photonic environments, we will pursue the"" creation, initialization and manipulation ofquantum states at the wafer scale. We will take advantage of recently discovered optic"al methodsto ~wire~ quantum states with a superconducting ~quantum bus~ and control them using photons.Our principal goal is to develop a rigorous fundamental understanding of the underlyingphenomena that will enable these functionalities. In contrast to curren"t hybrid solid state quantumtechnology schemes, this bottom-up method offers a fundamentally new approach withunprecedented advant"age: it enables the coherent integration of components based on preciseelectronic and structural control at the atomic level to create wafer scale quantum entangledtechnologies built upon a reconfigurable architecture and enable a quantum analog to the fieldprogrammable gate array
