    摘要: Semiconductor devices with improved performance and reliability and methods for forming the same are provided. The semiconductor devices include an active pattern (AP1) extending in a first direction (X), gate structures (GS) spaced apart from each other in the first direction on the active pattern (AP1), a source/drain pattern (150) on the active pattern (AP1), a source/drain contact (170) on the source/drain pattern (150), and a contact liner (175) extending along a sidewall (170_SW) of the source/drain contact (170). A carbon concentration of the contact liner (175) at a first point (PS1) of the contact liner (175) is different from a carbon concentration of the contact liner (175) at a second point (PS2) of the contact liner (175), and the first point (PS1) is at a first height from an upper surface (AP1_US) of the active pattern (AP1), the second point (PS2) is at a second height from the upper surface (AP1_US) of the active pattern (AP1), and the first height is smaller than the second height.

    摘要: A quantum processing element is disclosed. The qubit includes a semiconductor substrate (204), a dielectric material (205) forming an interface with the semiconductor substrate, a confinement gate (211) and antenna (214) on the dielectric material, and a donor molecule (208a, 208b) embedded in the semiconductor. The donor molecule includes a plurality of dopant dots (210a, 210b, 210c) embedded in the semiconductor, each dopant dot includes one or more dopant atoms, and one or more electrons/holes confined to the dopant dots. A distance between the dopant dots is between 3 and 9 nanometres.
