  • Patent number: 10193067
    Abstract: Generally discussed herein are techniques for and systems and apparatuses configured to control phonons using an electric field. In one or more embodiments, an apparatus can include electrical contacts, two quantum dots embedded in a semiconductor such that when an electrical bias is applied to the electrical contacts, the electric field produced by the electrical bias is substantially parallel to an axis through the two quantum dots, and a phononic wave guide coupled to the semiconductor, the phononic wave guide configured to transport phonons therethrough.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 7, 2017
    Date of Patent: January 29, 2019
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
