Photon Enhanced Interaction and Entanglement in Semiconductor Position-Based Qubits

CMOS technologies facilitate the possibility of implementing quantum logic in silicon. In this work, we discuss a minimalistic modelling of entangled photon communication in semiconductor qubits. We demonstrate that electrostatic actuation is sufficient to construct and control desired potential energy profiles along a Si quantum dot (QD) structure allowing the formation of position-based qubits. We further discuss a basic mathematical formalism to define the position-based qubits and their evolution under the presence of external driving fields. Then, based on Jaynes–Cummings–Hubbard formalism, we expand the model to include the description of the position-based qubits involving four energy states coupled with a cavity. We proceed with showing an anti-correlation between the various quantum states. Moreover, we simulate an example of a quantum trajectory as a result of transitions between the quantum states and we plot the emitted/absorbed photos in the system with time. Lastly, we examine the system of two coupled position-based qubits via a waveguide. We demonstrate a mechanism to achieve a dynamic interchange of information between these qubits over larger distances, exploiting both an electrostatic actuation/control of qubits and their photon communication. We define the entanglement entropy between two qubits and we find that their quantum states are in principle entangled.
