SUMMARY:Playing Ping-pong with Single Electrons - Professor Chris Ford
DTSTART:20151202T210000Z
DTEND:20151202T220000Z
UID:TALK61589@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Jamie Fox
DESCRIPTION:Semiconductor fabrication techniques allow researchers to make
  devices\ncontaining just a single electron\, resembling an artificial ato
 m\, with\nquantised energy levels\, but with far more control than in a re
 al atom.\nThe long-term goal is to make a quantum computer using a set of 
 these\n"quantum dots"\, each holding a quantum bit of information ("qubit"
 ).\nProf. Ford will introduce these topics and will describe his work on\n
 transferring single electrons between dots using sound waves travelling\na
 long a surface.
