Quantum computers hold great promise for advancing science, technology, and society by solving problems beyond classical computers' capabilities. One of the most promising quantum bit (qubit) technologies are spin qubits, based on quantum dots (QDs) that leverage the great maturity and scalability of semiconductor technologies. However, scaling up the number of spin qubits requires overcoming significant engineering challenges, such as the charge tuning of a very large number of QDs. The QD tuning process implies multiple complex steps that are currently performed manually by experimentalists, which is cumbersome and time consuming. It is now crucial to address this problem in order to both accelerate R&D and enable truly scalable quantum computers.
The main goal of the postdoctoral project is to develop a QD automatic tuning software combining Bayesian neural networks and a QD physical model fitted on CEA-Leti’s device behavior. This innovative approach leveraging the BayNN uncertainty estimations and the predictive aspect of QD models will enable to achieve fast and non-ideality-resilient automatic QD tuning solutions.
