摘要:
A silicon substrate is coated with one or more layers of resist. First and second circuit patterns are exposed in sequence, where the second pattern crosses the first pattern. The patterned resist layers are developed to open holes which extend down to the substrate only where the patterns cross over each other. These holes provide a mask suitable for implanting single phosphorous ions in the substrate, for a solid state quantum computer. Further development of the resist layers provides a mask for the deposition of nanoelectronic circuits, such as single electron transistors, aligned to the phosphorous ions.

Ionisation of one of a pair of dopant atoms (11, 12) in a substrate (13) creates a double well potential, and a charge qubit is realised by the location of one or more electrons or holes (14) within this potential. The dopant atoms may comprise phosphorous atoms, located in a silicon substrate. A solid state quantum computer may be formed using a plurality of pairs of dopant atoms (11, 12), corresponding gate electrodes (22, 23), and read-out devices comprising single electron transistors (24).

This invention concerns the fabrication of nanoscale and atomic scale devices. The method involves creating one or more registration markers. Using a SEM or optical microscope to form an image of the registration markers and the tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM). Using the image to position and reposition the STM tip to pattern the device structure. Forming the active region of the device and then encapsulating it such that one or more of the registration markers are still visible to allow correct positioning of surface electrodes. The method can be used to form any number of device structures including quantum wires, single electron transistors, arrays or gate regions. The method can also be used to produce 3D devices by patterning subsequent layers with the STM and encapsulating in between.

Azo pigment coupling process in which the amount of excess diazo or coupling component is continuously monitored and addition of diazo component or coupling component to the reaction is automatically controlled by means of an automatic chemical analyzer which incorporates a dialyser module. The process involves a method of automatically controlling the coupling reaction by a continuous-flow chemical analyzer which continuously samples the reaction mixture and analyzes it for unreacted diazo or coupling component by dialysis and colorimetry, and automatically adjusts the rate of addition of this component to the reaction mixture to keep the concentration of unreacted component within a pre-set range during the period of the reaction.

This invention concerns quantum computers in which the qubits are closed systems, in that the particle or particles are confined within the structure. A “site” can be produced by any method of confining an electron or other quantum particle, such as a dopant atom, a quantum dot, a cooper pair box, or any combination of these. In particular the invention concerns a closed three-site quantum particle system. The state in the third site is weakly coupled by coherent tunnelling to the first and second states, so that the third state is able to map out the populations of the first and second states as its energy is scanned with respect to the first and second states. In second and third aspects it concerns a readout method for a closed three-state quantum particle system.

A stabilized opaque form of C.I. Pigment Yellow 74 comprises a mixture of(a) 99.0 to 80.0 wt. % of Color Index Pigment Yellow 74;and(b) 1.0 to 20.0 wt. % of a different monoazo yellow pigment based on acetoacet-2-anisidide. These pigment products are distinguished by improved storage stability when incorporated into applicational media.
摘要:
Automatically controlled continuous process for the diazotization or tetrazotization of aromatic amines in which the rate of addition of the inorganic nitrite is controlled by a polarovoltric method. The process comprises adding regularly and continuously to a reactor an aqueous slurry or solution of the amine containing sufficient acid for the diazotization process and simultaneously adding to the reactor a solution of an inorganic nitrite at a rate which is automatically regulated by a polarovoltric controller to ensure that a pre-selected concentration of unreacted nitrous acid is maintained in the reactor throughout the whole period of the reaction.
