Superconductor-semiconductor hybrid cavity quantum electrodynamics

Understand

Light-matter interactions at the single particle level have generally been explored in the context of atomic, molecular, and optical physics.

• Recent advances motivated by quantum information science have made it possible to explore coherent interactions between photons trapped in superconducting cavities and superconducting qubits.
• Spins in semiconductors can have exceptionally long spin coherence times and can be isolated in silicon, the workhorse material of the semiconductor microelectronic industry.
• Here, we review recent advances in hybrid "super-semi" quantum systems that coherently couple superconducting cavities to semiconductor quantum dots.
