Properties of silicon that have made it the material of choice for semiconductor-based qubits with an emphasis on the role that modeling and simulation have played in understanding and quantifying these properties
“Silicon-based microelectronics technology is extremely mature, yet this profoundly important material is now also poised to become a foundation for quantum information processing technologies. In this article, we review the properties of silicon that have made it the material of choice for semiconductor-based qubits with an emphasis on the role that modeling and simulation have played in understanding and quantifying these properties. We also address some of the challenges that remain for silicon qubits for which modeling can play an important role and we offer our perspective on the future of this technology.”
