Cryogenic CMOS Circuit Technology for High Performance Computing

Researcher
Hiromitsu Awano

Associate Professor
Graduate School of Informatics
Kyoto University

Outline

This project will pioneer cryogenic CMOS computing technology. Quantum chips, which have attracted much attention these days, are placed in a cryogenic environment of several mK, separated by several temperature layers from room temperature, in order to protect the qubits from noise. However, intermediate temperature layers such as 77K and 4K have not been effectively utilized. Therefore, this research aims to pioneer cryogenic computing technology that effectively utilizes the intermediate temperature hierarchy, and pursue the extreme performance of CMOS circuits.

Associate Professor
Faculty of Engineering

Outline

In this proposal, a metasurface that operates in the mid-infrared wavelength region, which consists of a metal thin film, a dielectric (molecular detection layer), and a metal nanostructure (MIM type), is taken as an optochemical sensor device. By applying the plasmon-assisted infrared radiation enhancement method to this device, we will realize an ultra-high-sensitivity sensor that can always find molecules no matter how small they are. Furthermore, the goal is to realize an analysis system that can discriminate any molecule from the spectrum of complex shape due to light-molecule bonding.

Outline

In order to realize an advanced information society, power saving of computers is an unavoidable issue. Although in-memory computing has been proposed as a method to solve the problem, there is currently no memory material with the ultimate specification that can be used for this purpose.

Outline

We construct quantum hydrodynamic equations of many-body systems with spin degrees of freedom by means of second quantization. The obtained equations allow us to combine hydrodynaimc theory with quantum information theory. We can thus consider highly nonclassical states such as squeezed spin states in the field of spintronics, and perform sub-shot-noise measurement and control of spintronics devices.
