Technology No. 2021-KUBI-69459

Researchers at Purdue University have developed a low-cost fabrication method for semiconductor-based quantum computing networks. Quantum computer fabrication requires careful design and accurate fabrication to ensure ideal control of the quantum bit states. This technology aids the efforts of engineers by leveraging classical computers to algorithmically search for electrostatic gate configurations with the best control over the quantum bits. Each network requires a unique gate configuration, but new machine searches are not required to reproduce a previous network.
