Cryo-CMOS integrated circuits for the control of quantum computers

Speaker: Sushil Subramanian, Intel Corporation

Abstract: Quantum computing offers a potential solution for problems intractable by classical computing. A large number of qubits, the fundamental units of quantum information, have to be controlled precisely for implementing practical applications, thereby posing challenging scalability requirements on all layers of the quantum computing stack. Large-scale qubit control requires closer integration of control electronics to qubits operating at deep-cryogenic temperatures. In this talk, we will explore qubit physics and operation, and discuss various methods for qubit control and readout. Our focus will be primarily on spin qubits as they present a scalable solution on the device level, due to their ease of integration and better compatibility with industrial silicon manufacturing processes. We will then introduce integrated cryo-CMOS circuits for scalable control and present details of recent advances in cryo-CMOS qubit-controller chips and SOCs.

Speaker bio: Sushil Subramanian received the B.Tech. degree in electronics and electrical communication engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India, in 2009, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA, in 2017, where he worked on fast hopping frequency synthesizers and interference tolerant receivers. He is currently a research scientist at Intel Corporation, in Hillsboro, OR where he works on integrated circuits and systems for qubit control in quantum computers. His research interests include RF and mixed-signal integrated circuits for wireless communications and quantum computing.
