• Abstract: Confining electrons or holes in quantum dots formed in the channel of industry-standard fully depleted silicon-on-insulator CMOS structures is a promising approach to scalable qubit architectures. In this communication, we present measurement results of a commercial nanostructure fabricated using the GlobalFoundries 22FDX(TM) industrial process. We demonstrate here that quantum dots are formed in the device channel by applying a combination of a back- and gate voltages. We report our results on an effective detuning of the energy levels in the quantum dots by varying the barrier gate voltages in combination with the back-gate voltage. Given the need and importance of scaling to larger numbers of qubits, we demonstrate here the feasibility of single-electron box sensors at the edge of the quantum dot array for effective charge sensing in different operation modes -- sensing charge transitions in a single- and double quantum dots forming the quantum dot array. We also report measurement results demonstrating bias triangle pair formation and precise control over coupled quantum dots with variations in the inter-dot barrier. The reported measurement results demonstrate the ability to control the formation and coupling of multiple quantum dots in a quantum dot array and to sense their charge state via a Single Electron Box sensor in a commercial process for the first time.

  Current CMOS spin qubit processors consist of dense gate arrays to define the quantum dots. Small but sizeable spin-orbit interactions can transfer this electrostatic crosstalk to the spin g-factors. By studying the Stark shift from tens of spin qubits measured in nine different CMOS devices, we developed a theoretical frawework that explains how electric fields couple to the spin of the electrons.
