Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming a non-planar germanium quantum well structure. In particular, the quantum well structure can be implemented with group IV or III-V semiconductor materials and includes a germanium fin structure. In one example case, a non-planar quantum well device is provided, which includes a quantum well structure having a substrate (e.g. SiGe or GaAs buffer on silicon), a IV or III-V material barrier layer (e.g., SiGe or GaAs or AlGaAs), a doping layer (e.g., delta/modulation doped), and an undoped germanium quantum well layer. An undoped germanium fin structure is formed in the quantum well structure, and a top barrier layer deposited over the fin structure. A gate metal can be deposited across the fin structure. Drain/source regions can be formed at respective ends of the fin structure.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming transistor devices having source and drain regions with high concentrations of boron doped germanium. In some embodiments, an in situ boron doped germanium, or alternatively, boron doped silicon germanium capped with a heavily boron doped germanium layer, are provided using selective epitaxial deposition in the source and drain regions and their corresponding tip regions. In some such cases, germanium concentration can be, for example, in excess of 50 atomic % and up to 100 atomic %, and the boron concentration can be, for instance, in excess of 1E20 cm−3. A buffer providing graded germanium and/or boron concentrations can be used to better interface disparate layers. The concentration of boron doped in the germanium at the epi-metal interface effectively lowers parasitic resistance without degrading tip abruptness. The techniques can be embodied, for instance, in planar or non-planar transistor devices.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for measurement-free (MF) quantum error correction (QEC). For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: determining an error syndrome on a first subset of ancilla qubits of a quantum processor; decoding the error syndrome to produce decoded results on a second subset of ancilla qubits of the quantum processor; applying the decoded results to one or more system qubits; and unconditionally resetting the first subset and/or second subset of ancilla qubits to remove entropy and/or noise from the quantum system, wherein the operations of determining the error syndrome, decoding the error syndrome, applying the error syndrome, and unconditionally resetting the first and/or second subset of ancilla qubits are performed responsive to a qubit controller executing quantum control instructions provided from or derived from a script and without transmitting measurement data related to the error syndrome to a non-quantum computing device.

Abstract: Described herein are apparatuses, systems, and methods associated with a memory circuit that includes memory cells having respective threshold switches. The memory cells may include a selector transistor with a gate terminal coupled to a word line to receive a word line signal, a drain terminal coupled to a bit line to receive a bit line signal, and a source terminal coupled to a first terminal of the threshold switch. The threshold switch may switch from a high resistance state to a low resistance state when a voltage across the first terminal and a second terminal exceeds a threshold voltage and may remain in the low resistance state after switching when the voltage across the first and second terminals is equal to or greater than a holding voltage that is less than the threshold voltage. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming non-planar resistive memory cells, such as non-planar resistive random-access memory (ReRAM or RRAM) cells. The techniques can be used to reduce forming voltage requirements and/or resistances involved (such as the resistance during the low-resistance state) relative to planar resistive memory cells for a given memory cell space. The non-planar resistive memory cell includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a switching layer disposed between the first and second electrodes. The second electrode may be substantially between opposing portions of the switching layer, and the first electrode may be substantially adjacent to at least two sides of the switching layer, after the non-planar resistive memory cell is formed. In some cases, an oxygen exchange layer (OEL) may be disposed between the switching layer and one of the first and second electrodes to, for example, increase flexibility in incorporating materials in the cell.
