Description

1. Silicon-based Quantum Devices for Quantum Computing We will discuss the first-of-its-kind, CMOS technology for the implementation of quantum devices, including quantum-dot qubits for quantum registers, quantum-dot transistors for charge sensing, and cryogenic CMOSFETs for interface circuitry. The technical challenges for the fabrication and operation of quantum devices will be addressed from engineering perspectives.
2. Cryogenic CMOS Interface Circuitry for Quantum Computing The cryogenic interface circuitry has been developed for qubit control and readout. For spin- and superconducting-based qubits, microwave techniques have played an important role in providing periodic pulse control and charge sensing. The qubit state is sensed indirectly by changing the resonance frequency of a microwave resonator or the signal reflection of a microwave reflectometry. The circuit design technique will be reviewed.
3. Dose Quantum Computing strengthen or threaten IOT Security? To be or not to be. Rapid evolution of quantum computing threatens many popular encryption systems, such as Rivest-Shamir-Adleman, elliptic curve cryptography, or Diffie-Hellman. These existing cryptography systems as cores for modern Internet security ecosystem and spreads worldwide in any IoT devices, which has provided high security until Quantum computing emerges. Concise information about how quantum computing attacks the IoT crypto-system and how quantum computing resists and prevents the IoT devices from Hackers will be offered.

 Dr. E-Ray Hsieh, National Chiao Tung University, Hsinchu NYCU

E-Ray Hsieh received his PhD degree of Electronics Engineering at Institute of Electronics in National Chiao-Tung University in 2016. His research has focused on the fields of semiconductor devices, circuits, and related applications, especially in more-than-Moore, embedded-memory, in-memory computing of AI, Beyond-CMOS Technology, and Quantum-computing Technology, etc. Currently, he serves as an assistant professor in Dept. of Electrical Engineering, National Central University, dedicating development of Å Technologies for the next generation, including emerging memory and quantum technology. In his pursuing academic degrees, he also had participated with the development and researches of the CMOS scaling from 65nm to 14nm under an interdisciplinary team with the cooperation of the industry (UMC and TSMC) nearly a decade. These dual roles gave him the opportunity to theoretically and technologically address and to solve deeper issues in the nano-devices. His research achievements helped him generated three APL (Applied Physics Letters) articles, one JAP article and 26 oral presentations at IEDM (International Electron Devices Meeting) and VLSI (Symposia on VLSI Technology and Circuit). One of the presentations received the candidate of the best student paper award. In 2017, his VLSI paper had been highlighted, which is ranked on the top among worldwide universities. Moreover, he was invited twice to publish the IEEE TED and J-EDS journal papers. Furthermore, he has been invited twice to publish the IEEE TED and J-EDS journal
