CMOS Quantum Computing: Toward A Quantum Computer System-on-Chip

Abstract: Quantum computing is experiencing the transition from a scientific to an engineering field with the promise to revolutionize an extensive range of applications demanding high-performance computing. Many implementation approaches have been pursued for quantum computing systems, where currently the main streams can be identified based on superconducting, photonic, trapped-ion, and semiconductor qubits. Semiconductor-based quantum computing, specifically using CMOS technologies, is promising as it provides potential for the integration of qubits with their control and readout circuits on a single chip. This paves the way for the realization of a large-scale quantum computing system for solving practical problems. In this paper, we present an overview and future perspective of CMOS quantum computing, exploring developed semiconductor qubit structures, quantum gates, as well as control and readout circuits, with a focus on the promises and challenges of CMOS implementation.
