PLANAR QUANTUM STRUCTURES UTILIZING QUANTUM PARTICLE TUNNELING THROUGH LOCAL DEPLETED WELL
Novel and useful quantum structures having a continuous well with control gates that control a local depletion region to form quantum dots. Local depleted well tunneling is used to control quantum operations to implement quantum computing circuits. Qubits are realized by modulating gate potential to control tunneling through local depleted region between two or more sections of the well. Complex structures with a higher number of qdots per continuous well and a larger number of wells are fabricated. Both planar and 3D FinFET semiconductor processes are used to build well to gate and well to well tunneling quantum structures. Combining a number of elementary quantum structure, a quantum computing machine is realized. An interface device provides an interface between classic circuitry and quantum circuitry by permitting tunneling of a single quantum particle from the classic side to the quantum side of the device. Detection interface devices detect the presence or absence of a particle destructively or nondestructively.
QUANTUM STRUCTURE INCORPORATING THETA ANGLE CONTROL
Novel and useful electronic and magnetic control of several quantum structures that provide various control functions. An electric field provides control and is created by a voltage applied to a control terminal. Alternatively, an inductor or resonator provides control. An electric field functions as the main control and an auxiliary magnetic field provides additional control on the control gate. The magnetic field is used to control different aspects of the quantum structure. The magnetic field impacts the spin of the electron by tending to align to the magnetic field. The Bloch sphere is a geometrical representation of the state of a two-level quantum system and defined by a vector in x, y, z spherical coordinates. The representation includes two angles and whereby an appropriate electrostatic gate control voltage signal is generated to control the angle of the quantum state and an appropriate control voltage to an interface device generates a corresponding electrostatic field in the quantum structure to control the angle .

REPROGRAMMABLE QUANTUM PROCESSOR ARCHITECTURE
A novel and useful quantum computing machine architecture that includes a classic computing core as well as a quantum computing core. A programmable pattern generator executes sequences of instructions that control the quantum core. In accordance with the sequences, a pulse generator functions to generate the control signals that are input to the quantum core to perform quantum operations. A partial readout of the quantum state in the quantum core is generated that is subsequently re-injected back into the quantum core to extend decoherence time. Access gates control movement of quantum particles in the quantum core. Errors are corrected from the partial readout before being re-injected back into the quantum core. Internal and external calibration loops calculate error syndromes and calibrate the control pulses input to the quantum core. Control of the quantum core is provided from an external support unit via the pattern generator or can be retrieved from classic memory where sequences of commands for the quantum core are stored a priori in the memory. A cryostat unit functions to provide several temperatures to the quantum machine including a temperature to cool the quantum computing core to approximately 4 Kelvin.

QUANTUM SHIFT REGISTER INCORPORATING BIFURCATION
A novel and useful controlled quantum shift register for transporting particles from one quantum dot to another in a quantum structure. The shift register incorporates a succession of qdots with tunneling paths and control gates.
