    摘要: A device includes a plurality of digital-to-analog converters (DACs), a multiplexer, a plurality of electrodes including a first electrode, and a plurality of direct current (DC) offset circuits including a first DC offset circuit. At least one of the plurality of electrodes is located along a lane for movement of an ion. The multiplexer has multiple inputs coupled to the plurality of DACs and multiple outputs including a first output. The first output is configured to provide a first voltage. The first DC offset circuit is coupled between the first output and the first electrode. The first DC offset circuit is configured to add a first DC offset voltage to either the first voltage or the first voltage amplified by a first gain. The first DC offset voltage is configurable.

    摘要: A dual active bridge circuit includes a primary side circuit including first high-side transistor and a first low-side transistor electrically coupled at a first node, and an energy transfer inductor coupled to the first node and configured to provide an inductor current based on a voltage differential across the energy transfer inductor. A secondary side circuit includes a second high-side transistor and a second low-side transistor electrically coupled at a second node. A transformer is configured to transfer energy from the primary side circuit to the secondary side circuit based on the inductor current. A controller is configured to drive each of the transistors between respective switching states with a same duty cycle to control the voltage differential across the energy transfer inductor. The same duty cycle is less than 50% such that all of the transistors are simultaneously off for a predetermined interval.

    摘要: In an exemplary embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first major surface, one or more trenches formed in the first major surface and having a base and a side wall extending from the base to the first major surface, and a conductive member arranged in at least one trench of the one or more trenches. The conductive member is spaced apart from the base of the at least one trench by a lower isolating member and from the side wall of the at least one trench by an enclosed cavity located in the at least one trench. The conductive member has a lower face. A peripheral edge of the lower face of the conductive member is located in the cavity and a central portion of the lower face is in contact with the lower isolating member.

    摘要: A device for controlling trapped ions includes a substrate. A metal layer is disposed over the substrate. An electrode of an ion trap is disposed over the metal layer, the electrode being configured to trap one or more ions in a space above the electrode. An electrical insulator is disposed between the metal layer and the electrode. The electrical insulator has an upper surface facing towards the electrode and a lower surface facing towards the metal layer. An etching rate of the electrical insulator increases along a direction pointing from the upper surface to the lower surface.
