    A collaboration between Diraq and new venture Emergence Quantum has given rise to exquisite classical control that doesn’t compromise quantum performance.


    Diraq is well on its way to building a quantum chip patterned with millions of silicon spin qubits, and one step along this path involves integrating classical hardware to control and measure the qubits.  A key advantage of silicon is its compatibility with the complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology used widely in the microchip industry. But modern CMOS circuits generate heat and stray electrical fields that can degrade qubit performance. Reporting in Nature, Diraq and Emergence Quantum have shown that CMOS circuits held at cryogenic temperatures can control silicon spin qubits without affecting their performance.
