具体而言,在所述第二结构件20上形成电连接的所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202,并将所述第二连接端子202作为第二结构件20上电路结构的连接中介。在第二层(即第二结构件20)形成用于对所述量子比特101的量子态进行调控的所述信号传输线201,由于此层仅用于设置所述信号传输线201,因此在布线时,可以合理的规划,降低所述信号传输线201之间的串扰。例如,可以利用所述量子比特101的频率参数,将频率间隔较大的所述量子比特101对应的所述信号传输线201相邻设置,从而降低相互之间的影响。
需要补充的是,所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20均是指用于加工超导量子芯片的衬底,更具体而言,可以采用半导体材料的衬底,例如蓝宝石、硅、碳化硅等。
步骤S30:形成支撑连接件,所述支撑连接件的两端分别电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202,且所述支撑连接件用于将所述信号传输线201上接收到的控制信号传输至所述量子比特101。
当分别在所述第一结构件10上形成了量子比特101和读取腔102,并将所述第一连接端子103作为第一结构件10的连接中介之后,再在所述第二结构件20上形成信号传输线201,并将所述第二连接端子202作为第二结构件20的连接中介,然后进行形成所述支撑连接件30的步骤。可以利用原子层沉积技术在第二连接端子202的表面形成所述支撑连接件30,并将所述支撑连接件30剥离所述衬底。所述支撑连接件不仅用于支撑所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20,所述支撑连接件还用于电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202,并且所述支撑连接件用于将所述信号传输线201上接收到的控制信号传输至所述量子比特101。
本申请通过在第一结构件10上形成量子比特101和读取腔102,并在第二结构件20上形成信号传输线201;将超导量子芯片的用于实施量子计算的电路结构(量子比特101和读取腔102)与用于实施量子比特101调控的信号传输线201进行分层并单独形成;并分别在所述第一结构件10上形成与量子比特101电连接的第一连接端子103、在所述第二结构件20上形成与所述信号传输线201进行电连接的第二连接端子202,再形成所述支撑连接件30并利用所述支撑连接件 30的两端分别电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202,实现了将所述信号传输线201上接收到的控制信号传输至所述量子比特101,从而构成了完整的超导量子芯片的电路结构。利用本申请的方法制备的超导量子芯片具有高集成度。
接下来首先将参照附图对根据本申请的超导量子芯片结构实施例1进行详细的描述
如图2所示,本实施例提供了一种超导量子芯片结构,具体而言,所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102位于所述第一结构件10的第一表面上,所述第一连接端子103位于所述第一结构件10的第二表面上,所述第一结构件10还设置有贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的第一通孔104,所述第一通孔104内填充有第一金属层105,所述第一金属层105用于电连接所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103。
由于所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20均为双面的结构且平行设置,并通过所述支撑连接件30进行支撑固定,因此所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20的第一表面(即上表面)和第二表面(即下表面)均可以设置超导量子电路。本实施例将所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102设置在所述第一结构件10上的第一表面,其中,所述第一结构件的第一表面远离所述第二结构件20。通过这样设置,可以将所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102与第二层(即第二结构件20)的所述信号传输线201的垂直距离增大,从而进一步降低所述信号传输线201上施加的控制信号对其他所述量子比特101的影响。
通过在所述第一结构件10上设置所述第一通孔104,第一通孔104将所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面连通,并在所述第一结构件10的第二表面上所述第一通孔104所在位置设置所述第一连接端子103,同时在所述第一通孔内填充所述第一金属层105,借助所述第一金属层105的导电性来实现所述第一结构件10的第一表面上的所述量子比特101与所述第一结构件10的第二表面上的所述第一连接端子103的电连接。
同时,在所述第二结构件20的第一表面上设置电连接的所述第二连接端子202和所述信号传输线201,并在所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20之间设置支撑连接件30,通过支撑连接件30将所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20支撑固定的同时,所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202实现了电连接。即通过所述第二连接端子202、所述支撑连接件30、所述第一连接端子103以及所述第一通孔104实现了所述信号传输线201与所述量子比特101的电连接,从而实现了分层设计超导量子芯片结构的效果。
如图2和图5所示,在所述第一结构件10的第二表面上设置所述第一连接端子103时,所述第一连接端子103在所述第一结构件10的第二表面沿着所述第一通孔104的周向分布且所述第一连接端子103与所述第一通孔104同轴设置。同时,在第二结构件20的第一表面与第一连接端子103对应的位置设置所述第二连接端子202。第一结构件10平行地设置于第二结构件20的正上方,从而形成所述第一通孔104、所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202三者同轴设置的结构,在制备所述第一结构件10的所述第一连接端子103和所述第二结构件20的所述第二连接端子202时,可采用同样的加工流程,从而简化了工艺流程。此外,在通过支撑连接件30固定第一结构件10和第二结构件20时,可以轻松的实现所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202以及所述第一通孔104的对准,保证了超导量子芯片上每个所述量子比特101电路的一致性。
继续如图4和图5所示,所述超导量子芯片上的每一个所述量子比特101上均需要施加用于调控频率参数的第一调控信号和用于调控量子态参数的第二调控信号,而所述第一调控信号和所述第二调控信号需要通过不同的信号传输线施加,即每一个所述量子比特101均需要设置对应的两路信号传输路线,而且两路信号传输线之间相互隔离,而每一路信号传输路径均需要通过一个所述第一通孔104、一个所述第一连接端子103、一个所述第二连接端子202、一个所述支撑连接件30、以及一个所述第二连接端子202形成电连接的信号传导路径,构成对一个所述量子比特101的频率参数或者量子态参数进行调控的电路结构。在具体实施时,如图4所示的所述第一结构件的第一表面的结构图,每一个所述量子比特上与两个所述第一通孔104内的所述第一金属层105电连接,而该两个所述第一通孔104内的所述第一金属层105与位于所述第一结构件10的第二表面的两个所述第一连接端子103分别连接;因而,每一个所述第一连接端子103均电连接一个所述支撑连接件30,而所述支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第二结构件20的第一表面的所述第二连接端子202电连接,一个所述第二连接端子202与对应的一个所述信号传输线201连接,一个所述信号传输线201接收一个所述第一调控信号或所述第二调控信号。
简而言之,每一个所述量子比特101对应设置有2个所述第一通孔104、2个所述第一连接端子103、两个所述支撑连接件30、两个所述第二连接端子202和两个所述信号传输线201。
下面将参照附图对根据本申请的与上述超导量子芯片结构实施例1相对应的超导量子芯片制备方法实施例1进行详细的描述。
如图7所示,在所述第一结构件10上形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103的步骤,包括:
S101:形成贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的第一通孔104;
如图8所示,第一结构件10为双面的衬底,第一表面和第二表面均可以设置电路结构,具体而言,第一表面是指衬底的水平朝上的表面,第二表面所述衬底的水平朝下的表面。其中,形成超导量子芯片的衬底通常选用蓝宝石、硅等材料,因此,所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面是隔离的。通过在所述第一结构件10上形成贯穿第一表面和第二表面的所述第一通孔104,可以将所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面连通,便于在两个表面均设置超导量子芯片的电路结构。
需要补充的是,所述第一通孔104的轴向截面的形状可以为梯形。将所述第一通孔104的轴向截面的形状设置为梯形可以便于在所述第一通孔104表面形成导电层。具体而言,在所述第一通孔104表面形成导电层时,是利用喷枪将金属粒子打到所述第一通孔104表面,采用梯形的形状,可以使得所述第一通孔104表面所有位置都能沉积金属粒子,而且金属粒子沉积之后形成的导电层更均匀。
在所述形成贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的第一通孔104的步骤之前,还需要在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成第一保护膜106。
如图8所示,本申请在具体实施时,部分加工工艺也可以参照半导体芯片的加工流程,形成贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的第一通孔104是利用刻蚀工艺加工的。具体而言,形成贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的第一通孔104是通过对所述第一结构件10的第一表面进行刻蚀来实现的,因此在刻蚀之前,在所述第一结构件10的第一表面上对第一通孔104进行图案化,保证刻蚀的形状、尺寸与期望的形状、尺寸相符合。并且在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成第一保护膜106,从而防止在对所述第一结构件10的第一表面进行刻蚀时对所述第一结构件10的第二表面造成污染。具体而言,所述第一保护膜106可以为二氧化硅薄膜,可以利用电子束蒸发镀膜的技术在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成所述第一保护膜106。
本申请在形成贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的第一通孔104时,可以利用电感耦合等离子体刻蚀所述第一结构10件形成所述第一通孔104。
在芯片加工流程中,对衬底的刻蚀方法有物理轰击刻蚀和化学反应刻蚀,具体地,物理轰击刻蚀可以包括离子束刻蚀,化学反应刻蚀可以包括电感耦合等离子体刻蚀。相比较而言,化学反应刻蚀通常用来做深硅刻蚀。本申请中需要刻蚀的第一通孔104是贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的,也就是说,本申请中需要刻蚀的第一通孔104是比较深的孔,因此采用化学反应刻蚀,即电感耦合等离子体刻蚀,这样可以保证所述第一通孔104的深宽比更好。
S102:在所述第一通孔104内填充第一金属层105。
如图9所示,所述第一通孔104贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面,为了实现所述第一结构件10的两个表面上的电路结构之间电连通,还需要在所述第一通孔104内填充导电层(即第一金属层105),借助所述第一金属层105的导电性,使得在所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面之间能够实现电连接,以便在第一表面和第二表面形成电路结构时,使得两个表面的电路结构之间形成电连接。
在利用电感耦合等离子体刻蚀形成出所述第一通孔104之后,还需要进行在所述第一通孔104内填充所述第一金属层105的步骤,包括:利用原子层沉积技术在所述第一通孔104内形成所述第一金属层105。
所述第一金属层105将所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103电连接。超导量子芯片对信号的精度要求比较高,因此,需要保证所述超导量子芯片中的电路结构的性能,尤其是一些实现电连接的结构(如所述第一金属层105、所述支撑连接件30)的性能。而原子层沉积技术由于其沉积参数具有高度可控性(厚度、成份、结构),使得利用原子层沉积技术在所述第一通孔104表面沉积第一金属形成的第一金属层105的均匀性和一致性得到保证,进而有助于保证超导量子芯片的性能更优、一致性更好。
在利用原子层沉积技术在所述第一通孔104内形成所述第一金属层105之后,还需要在所述第一金属层105表面形成第二保护膜107。
如图10所示,所述第一金属层105是利用原子层沉积技术在所述第一通孔104表面形成的用于电连接所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103的导电层。本申请的超导量子芯片的加工工艺过程中,是先形成所述第一通孔104、进而在所述第一通孔104的内表面利用原子层沉积技术形成所述第一金属层105,然后在所述第一结构件10上形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103的电路结构,再通过将支撑连接件30的两端和所述第一结构件10、所述第二结构件20分别固定连接。可以发现,在所述第一通孔104表面利用原子层沉积技术沉积第一金属膜之后,后续还有多个工艺流程。当在所述第一金属层105的表面形成一层保护膜(即第二保护膜107),可以有效的防止所述第一金属层105出现氧化、脱落等情况,保证所述第一金属层105的电导特性。具体而言,所述第二保护膜107的材料优先选择聚对二甲苯。
如图11所示,在所述第一通孔表面形成所述第二保护膜107之后,为了便于后面步骤中在所述第一结构件10的所述第二表面形成相应的电路结构,需要先将在所述第一结构件10的所述第二表面形成的所述第一保护膜106去除。具体而言,利用湿法刻蚀去除所述二氧化硅薄膜(即第一保护膜106)。
S103:在所述第一结构件10的所述第二表面形成所述第一连接端子103;
如图5所示,可以利用原子层沉积技术在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成所述第一连接端子103。此外,在形成所述第一连接端子103时,所述第一连接端子103在所述第一结构件10的第二表面沿着所述第一通孔104的周向分布且所述第一连接端子103与所述第一通孔104同轴设置,且所述第一连接端子103与所述第一通孔内104内填充的所述第一金属层105电连接。从而能够保证在将所述支撑连接件30与所述第一连接端子103电连接时,容易对准,确保一致性。
S104:在所述第一结构件10的第一表面形成所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102。
如图4所示,在超导量子芯片的电路结构中,量子比特101是进行量子计算的核心结构,而读取腔102是对量子比特101的量子态进行读取的微波谐振器,读取腔102需要与量子比特101近邻,因此将量子比特101和读取腔102设置于第一结构件10的同一个表面(即第一表面),将第一连接端子103设置于第一结构件10的另一个表面(即第二表面)。其中,在形成所述量子比特101时,所述量子比特101需要与所述第一通孔104内的所述第一金属层105电连接,进而通过所述第一金属层105将所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103电连接,即实现了将所述读取腔102、量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103连通的目的,且将所述第一连接端子103作为第一结构件10的连接中介,以与所述第二结构件20上的第二连接端子202电连接。
在所述第一结构件10的第一表面形成所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102时,先利用紫外光刻技术将所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路形状形成图案化的掩膜,其中的图形结构即具体的所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路结构;进而利用电子束蒸发镀膜技术在图案化的掩膜内沉积超导材料的金属获得所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路结构。具体而言,可以选择铝、铌、钽,或者铌钛的氮化物等,本申请优优先选择铝材料,其成本低、易于形成。
如图12所示,由于所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面都需要形成电路结构,而且所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路结构相对所述第一连接端子103来说,更脆弱,在形成过程中需要严格控制工艺流程,因此本申请在形成所述第一结构件10上的电路结构时,先进行步骤S103(即先形成所述第一连接端子)、进而再进行步骤S104(后形成所述量子比特101和所述读取腔)。若是调换了先后顺序,在形成所述第一连接端子103时容易损坏所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路结构。
如图6所示,当利用上述步骤在所述第一结构件10上形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103之后,所述第一结构件10的形成工作已初步完成,进而在所述第二结构件20上形成电连接的所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202,并借助所述支撑连接件30电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202,构成完整的超导量子芯片结构。
如图2所示,采用本实施例的制备方法制备的第一种超导量子芯片结构,包括第一结构件10、第二结构件20和支撑连接件30;所述第一结构件10上形成有量子比特101、读取腔102、第一连接端子103,而且,所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102耦合连接,所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103电连接;所述第二结构件20上形成有电连接的信号传输线201和第二连接端子202;所述支撑连接件30的两端分别电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202,并所述支撑连接件用于将所述信号传输线201上接收到的控制信号传输至所述量子比特101,构建完整的超导量子电路。
当所述量子比特101与所述信号传输线201设置在不同层之后,分别实现了在所述第一结构件10上形成所述第一连接端子103电连接所述量子比特101、在所述第二结构件20上形成所述第二连接端子202电连接所述信号传输线201,再利用所述支撑连接件30将所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20相对的支撑固定,且利用所述支撑连接件30的两 端将所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202之间电连接,即可实现所述量子比特101与所述信号传输线201的电连接,从而实现通过所述信号传输线201接收控制信号并对所述量子比特101进行调控的目的。同时,所述读取腔102与所述量子比特101耦合连接,也可以通过所述信号传输线201对所述量子比特101的量子态进行读取,最终完善超导量子芯片的电路结构。
需要说明的是,所述超导量子芯片上的每一个所述量子比特101上均需要施加用于调控频率参数的第一调控信号和用于调控量子态参数的第二调控信号,而所述第一调控信号和所述第二调控信号需要通过不同的信号传输线201施加,即每一个所述量子比特101均需要设置对应的两路信号传输路线,而且两路信号传输线201之间相互隔离,而每一路信号传输路径均需要通过一个所述第一通孔104、一个所述第一连接端子103、一个所述第二连接端子202、一个所述支撑连接件30、以及一个所述第二连接端子202形成电连接的信号传导路径,构成对一个所述量子比特101的频率参数或者量子态参数进行调控的电路结构。
具体实施时,如图4所示的所述第一结构件10的第一表面的结构图,每一个所述量子比特101上与两个所述第一通孔104内表面的所述第一金属层105电连接,再如图5所示的所述第一结构件10的第二表面的结构图,所述第一通孔104内表面的所述第一金属层105与所述第一结构件10的第二表面的所述第一连接端子103连接;进而,所述第一连接端子103均电连接一个所述支撑连接件30,继续如图6所示的所述第二结构件20的第一表面的结构图,所述支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第二结构件20的第一表面的所述第二连接端子202电连接,最终与对应的一个所述信号传输线201连接,接收一个所述第一调控信号或所述第二调控信号,并且所述支撑连接件30与所述第二连接端子202同轴设置。
简而言之,与每一个所述量子比特101直接或间接电连接的结构包括2个所述第一通孔104、2个所述第一连接端子103、两个所述支撑连接件30、两个所述第二连接端子202和两个所述信号传输线201。
下面参照附图对根据本申请的超导量子芯片结构实施例2进行详细的描述。
超导量子芯片结构的实施例2如图13所示,本实施例提供了第二种超导量子芯片结构,所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103均位于所述第一结构件10的第二表面,所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202位于所述第二结构件20的第一表面,其中,所述第一结构件10的第二表面与所述第二结构件20的第一表面相对设置。
具体而言,超导量子芯片结构包括平行设置的所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20,将所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102设置在所述第一结构件10的第二表面,同时将所述信号传输线201设置于所述第二结构件20的第一表面,实现对称设置,并通过支撑连接件30支撑所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20,并通过支撑连接件30的两端分别电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202,实现超导量子电路的连接。
在本实施例中,通过支撑连接件30,将所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述信号传输线201沿着所述第一结构件10的第二表面和所述第二结构件20的第一表面对称设置,且通过支撑连接件30将所述量子比特101和所述信号传输线201的距离拉开,不需要在所述第一结构件10设置所述第一通孔104,即可降低所述信号传输线201上施加的调控信号对所述量子比特101的串扰影响,同时又实现了超导量子芯片的立体结构,显著地提高了超导量子芯片的集成度和性能。
接下来将参照附图对根据本申请的与超导量子芯片结构实施例2相对应的超导量子芯片制备方法实施例2进行详细的描述。
如图14所示,在第一结构件10上形成量子比特101、读取腔102和第一连接端子103以及在在第二结构件20上形成信号传输线201和第二连接端子202的步骤,包括:
步骤S111:在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103;
与方法实施例1中在所述第一结构件10上形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103的步骤不同是,本方法实施例2中,所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103均加工在所述第一衬底的同一个表面(即第二表面)。其中,具体制备所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103的工艺方法与方法实施例1中的相同,此处不再赘述。
步骤S112:在所述第二结构件20的所述第一表面形成所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202;其中,所述第一表面和所述第二表面相对设置。
通过将所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202形成在所述第二结构件20的同一个表面上,即与所述第一结构件10的第二表面相对的第一表面上,这使得所述第二连接端子202和所述第一连接端子103相对设置,这样便于在所述第二连接端子202上形成的所述支撑连接件30与所述第一连接端子103固定连接。
具体而言,在所述第二结构件20的所述第一表面形成所述第二连接端子202时,采用与所述步骤S103(在所述第一 结构件10的第二表面制备所述第一连接端子103)中相同的工艺流程;而在所述第二结构件20的所述第一表面形成所述信号传输线201时,采用目前芯片制备领域通用的工艺流程,即曝光、显影、刻蚀、清洗等工艺流程。
如图15所示,在所述第二结构件20的表面形成所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202时,需要先在所述第二结构件的表面利用原子层沉积技术形成一层导电层(即第三金属层205)。因为所述第二结构件20的材料均为半导体材料,而所述信号传输线201采用微带传输线形式时,所述信号传输线201是无法直接在所述第二结构件20的表面制备的。首先在所述第二结构件20的第一表面形成所述第三金属层205,进而在所述第三金属层205的表面利用光刻等图案化工艺制备所述信号传输线201,而且可以借助所述第三金属层205使得所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202电连接。其中,所述第三金属层205的材料可以选择超导材料,具体而言,所述第三金属层205的材料可以采用铝。
此外,如图16所示,当在所述第三金属层205上形成所述信号传输线201之后,需要将除所述信号传输线201以外的所述第三金属层205去除,使得在所述第二结构件20的第一表面仅形成所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202对应的电路结构。
如图13所示,图13示出了按照本实施例提供的方法制备的第二种超导量子芯片结构,超导量子芯片结构包括所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20,在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103,同时将所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202设置于所述第二结构件20的第一表面上,实现对称设置,并利用支撑连接件30支撑所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20,且利用支撑连接件30的两端分别电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202以实现超导量子电路的连接。
在本实施例中,利用支撑连接件30将所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述信号传输线201沿着所述第一结构件10的第二表面和所述第二结构件20的第一表面对称设置,且利用支撑连接件30将所述量子比特101和所述信号传输线201的距离拉开,不需要在所述第一结构件10设置所述第一通孔104,即可降低所述信号传输线201上施加的调控信号对所述量子比特101的串扰影响,同时又实现了超导量子芯片的立体结构,显著地提高了超导量子芯片的集成度和性能。
下面将参照附图对根据本申请的超导量子芯片结构实施例3进行详细的描述。
如图17所示,本实施例提供了第三种超导量子芯片结构,所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103均可以位于所述第一结构件10的第二表面上,所述第二连接端子202可以位于所述第二结构件20的第一表面上,所述信号传输线201可以位于所述第二结构件20的第二表面上,且所述第二结构件20设置有贯穿所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的第二通孔204,所述第二通孔204内填充有第一金属层105,所述第一金属层105用于电连接所述第二连接端子202和所述信号传输线201。
与结构实施例2相比,本实施例将所述第二结构件20的第二连接端子202设置于所述第二结构件20的第一表面上的同时,将所述信号传输线201设置于所述第二结构件20第二表面上,并设置贯穿所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的所述第二通孔204,进而在所述第二通孔204内形成第二金属层203,借助所述第二金属层203的导电性,使得所述第二连接端子202和所述信号传输线201进行连接。通过这种结构设计,不仅增加了所述信号传输线201与所述量子比特101的距离,也通过第二结构件20本身的绝缘效果使得超导量子电路的串扰削弱到近乎忽略不计。
需要说明的是,在芯片制备领域,尤其是超导量子芯片制备领域,衬底材料通常为蓝宝石、硅、碳化硅等材料,而这些材料本身就具有绝缘效果,因此,在上述3个结构实施例中,优先选择结构实施例1和结构实施例3的超导量子芯片结构,通过所述第一结构件10、所述第二结构件20的材料的绝缘特性来将所述量子比特101和所述信号传输线201进行隔离,并通过支撑连接件30将所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20进行分层隔离,非常显著地降低了所述信号传输线201上施加的控制信号对其他所述量子比特101的串扰影响。
更可选地,在结构实施例1和结构实施例3中,优先选择实施例1的超导量子芯片结构,即将所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102设置于所述第一结构件10的第一表面,将所述第一连接端子103设置于所述第一结构件10的第二表面,进而设置贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的所述第一通孔104,并通过所述第一通孔104内填充的所述第一金属层105实现所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103的电连接。这样可以确保在对所述第一结构件10、所述第二结构件20和所述支撑连接件30进行固定时,不会损坏所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路结构。
回到图2所示,第一结构体所述第一通孔104的轴向截面的形状为梯形。本申请在所述第一结构件10上设置所述第一通孔104时,所述第一通孔104的轴向截面的形状为梯形。将所述第一通孔104的轴向截面的形状设置为梯形,可以便于在所述第一通孔104表面通过原子沉积技术制备导电层。具体而言,在所述第一通孔104表面进行导电层沉积时, 是通过喷枪将金属粒子打到所述第一通孔104表面,采用梯形的形状,可以使得所述第一通孔104表面所有位置都能沉积金属粒子,而且金属粒子沉积之后形成的导电层更均匀。
在所述第一通孔104表面设置金属层时,所述第一金属层105的材料为超导材料。本申请实施例制备的芯片为超导量子芯片,因此在设置所述量子比特101和所述信号传输线201之间的导电结构(即第一通孔104表面的第一金属层105、第一连接端子103、支撑连接件30、第二连接端子202)时,这些组成部分的材料均需要采用超导材料,满足超导量子芯片的功耗需求。
其中,所述第一金属层105的超导材料选择氮化钛,所述支撑连接件30的材料为铟。本申请在具体实施时,采用氮化钛,氮化钛的导电性能高且耐高温,当在所述第一通孔104表面制备了氮化钛材料的所述第一金属层105之后,在后续的超导量子芯片加工的工艺流程中,通过控制加工温度,可以有效的保证所述第一金属层105的性能。此外,支撑连接件30不仅用于支撑所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20,还用于将在所述第一结构件10的第二表面设置的所述第一连接端子103和在所述第二结构件20的第一表面设置的所述第二连接端子202电连接,因此,所述支撑连接件30的材料也选择超导材料。支撑连接件30的制备步骤包括:通过电子束蒸发镀膜技术在所述第二结构件20的第一表面设置的所述第二连接端子202的表面上生成所述支撑连接件30;以及将支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第一结构件10的第一连接端子103通过焊接的方式进行固定连接。本申请实施例选择铟作为支撑连接件30的材料,铟的熔点相对其他超导材料低一些,便于焊接,同时避免高温对所述第一金属层105的影响。
此外,在所述第二结构件20的第一表面设置有第二金属层。所述第二结构件20的材料均为半导体材料,而所述信号传输线201采用微带传输线形式时,所述信号传输线201是无法直接在所述第二结构件20的表面制备的。首先在所述第二结构件20的第一表面形成一层导电金属层(即第二金属层),进而在所述第二金属层的表面通过光刻等图案化工艺制备所述信号传输线201。不过当在所述第二金属层上制备好所述信号传输线201之后,需要将除所述信号传输线201以外的所述第二金属层去除,使得在所述第二结构件20的第一表面仅形成所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202对应的电路结构。
如图2和图4所示的超导量子芯片结构,所述第一金属层105的表面填充保护膜107(即第二保护膜107)。如前面所述,所述第一金属层105是通过金属沉积技术在所述第一通孔104的内表面制备的用于电连接所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103的导电层。本申请实施例涉及的超导量子芯片在加工工艺过程中,是先制备所述第一通孔104,进而在所述第一通孔104的内表面沉积所述第一金属层105,然后继续在所述第一结构件10的第一表面制备所述读取腔102、所述量子比特101等结构,以及通过焊接技术将支撑连接件30的两端和所述第一结构件10、所述第二结构件20分别固定连接。可以发现,在所述第一通孔104表面沉积第一金属膜之后,后续还有多个工艺流程,而且在焊接支撑连接件30时,还处于高温环境中。当在所述第一金属层105的表面填充一层保护膜(即第二保护膜107),可以有效的防止所述第一金属层105出现氧化、脱落等情况,保证所述第一金属层105的电导特性。
如图2、图5和图6所示,所述支撑连接件30形状为圆柱形。所述支撑连接件30的两端需要分别与所述第一连接端子103、所述第二连接端子202通过焊接方式连接固定,而所述第一连接端子103在所述第一结构件10的第二表面环绕所述第一通孔104设置,所述第二连接端子202形成在所述第二结构件20的第一表面与所述第一连接端子103对应的位置,且所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202均为圆柱状,因此,将所述支撑连接件30的形状设置为圆柱形,所述支撑连接件30与第一连接端、第二连接端子202的接触面积大,在进行焊接时可以保证焊接效果以及导电效果。
与相关技术相比,本申请的超导量子芯片结构包括第一结构件10、第二结构件20和支撑连接件30;其中,所述第一结构件10上设置有量子比特101、读取腔102和第一连接端子103,其中,所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102耦合连接,所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103电连接;所述第二结构件20上设置有电连接的信号传输线201和第二连接端子202;所述支撑连接件30的两端分别电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202,所述支撑连接件用于将所述信号传输线201上接收到的控制信号传输至所述量子比特101。通过在不同的结构件上设置所述量子比特101、读取腔102和信号传输线201,并借助所述第一连接端子103、第二连接端子202以及所述支撑连接件30将设置于所述第一结构件10的量子比特101和所述第二结构件20的信号传输线201电连接,构成了完整的超导量子芯片结构,大大的减小了所述超导量子芯片的平面尺寸,提高了多位的超导量子芯片的集成度。
下面将参照附图对根据本申请的与超导量子芯片结构实施例3相对应的超导量子芯片制备方法实施例3进行详细的描述。
如图18所示,在第二结构件20上形成信号传输线201和第二连接端子202的步骤,包括:
步骤S201:形成贯穿所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的第二通孔204;
与方法实施例1中的步骤S101相比,在本实施例中,选择在所述第二结构件20上形成贯穿所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的所述第二通孔204,所述第二通孔204将所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面打通,从而便于实现所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的连通。其中,在所述第二结构件20上形成所述第二通孔204的方法也可以采用电感耦合等离子体刻蚀,与在所述第一结构件10上形成所述第一通孔104的方法相同,此处不再赘述。
步骤S202:在所述第二通孔204内填充第二金属层203;
通过在所述第二通孔204内填充所述第二金属层203,将所述第二结构件20的第一表面上的电路结构和第二表面的电路结构的电连接。其中,在所述第二通孔204内填充所述第二金属层203的方法也可以采用原子层沉积技术,与在所述第一通孔104内形成所述第一金属层105的方法相同,此处不再赘述。而且,所述金属层205采用的材料也可以与所述第一金属层105的材料相同。此外,所述第二金属层203的表面也会利用原子层沉积技术形成一层第三保护膜206。其中,所述第三保护膜206的形成方法和效果与所述第二保护膜107的形成方法和效果相同,此处不再赘述。
步骤S203:在所述第二结构件20的第一表面形成所述第二连接端子202;
采用原子层沉积技术直接在所述第二结构件20的第一表面形成所述第二连接端子202。其中,所述第二连接端子与所述第一结构件10上的所述第一连接端子103对应设置,便于利用所述支撑连接件30电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202。而且所述第二连接端子203在所述第二结构件20的第二表面沿着所述第二通孔204的周向分布且所述第二连接端子203与所述第二通孔204同轴设置,进而所述第二连接端子203与所述第二通孔内204内填充的所述第二金属层203电连接。
步骤S204:在所述第二结构件20的所述第二表面形成所述信号传输线201。
采用与步骤S112相同的工艺流程,先在所述第二结构件20的第二表面利用原子层沉积技术形成所述第三金属层205,并在所述第三金属层205上形成所述信号传输线201,并将除所述信号传输线201之外的所述第三金属层205去除。
可以在所述第二结构件20的不同的表面形成所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202,具体而言,在所述第二结构件20的第一表面形成所述第二连接端子202,在所述第二结构件20的第二表面形成所述信号传输线201,并依靠贯穿所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的第二通孔204以及所述第二通孔204内填充的第二金属层203与所述第二连接端子202电连接,构成完整的超导量子芯片电路。
如图19所示,为按照本实施例提供的方法制备的超导量子芯片结构,在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103,在所述第二结构件20的第一表面形成所述第二连接端子202、并在所述第二结构件20的第二表面形成所述信号传输线201,且在所述第二结构件20上形成贯穿所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的第二通孔204,所述第二通孔204内填充有第二金属层203,利用所述第二金属层203电连接所述第二连接端子202和所述信号传输线201。
与方法实施例2相比,本实施例将所述第二连接端子202形成于所述第二结构件20的第一表面的同时,将所述信号传输线201形成于所述第二结构件20的第二表面,并设置贯穿所述第二结构件20的第一表面和第二表面的所述第二通孔204,并在所述第二通孔204内填充的第二金属层203,借助所述第二金属层203的导电性,使得所述第二连接端子202和所述信号传输线201实现电连接。不仅增加了所述信号传输线201与所述量子比特101的距离,也利用第二结构件20本身的绝缘效果,使得超导量子电路的串扰削弱到近乎忽略不计。
需要说明的是,在芯片制备领域,尤其是在超导量子芯片制备领域,衬底材料通常为蓝宝石、硅、碳化硅等材料,而这些材料本身就具有绝缘效果,因此,在上述3个实施例中,优先选择方法实施例1和方法实施例3的超导量子芯片结构,利用所述第一结构件10、所述第二结构件20的材料的绝缘特性,将所述量子比特101和所述信号传输线201进行隔离,并利用支撑连接件30将所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20进行分层隔离,非常显著地降低了所述信号传输线201上施加的控制信号对其他所述量子比特101的串扰影响。
更可选地,在方法实施例1和方法实施例3中,优先选择方法实施例1的超导量子芯片制备方法,即在所述第一结构件10的第一表面形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102,在所述第一结构件10的第二表面形成所述第一连接端子103,并形成贯穿所述第一结构件10的第一表面和第二表面的所述第一通孔104,通过在所述第一通孔104内填充所述第一金属层105实现所述量子比特101和所述第一连接端子103的电连接。这样可以避免在对所述第一结构件10、所述第二结构件20和所述支撑连接件30进行固定连接时损坏所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路结构。
利用前面步骤分别在所述第一结构件10上形成所述量子比特101、所述读取腔102和所述第一连接端子103,在所述第二结构件20上形成所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202,即可以进行形成所述支撑连接件的步骤。
如图20所示,形成支撑连接件,所述支撑连接件的两端分别电连接所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202的步骤,包括:
步骤S301:在所述第二连接端子202表面形成所述支撑连接件30;
步骤S302:将所述支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第一连接端子103电连接。
具体而言,所述支撑连接件30可以利用原子层沉积技术在所述第一连接端子103的表面形成或者在所述第二连接端子202的表面形成,以及单独形成所述支撑连接件30。
相比较而言,由于所述第一结构件10的第一表面需要形成所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102,当在位于所述第一结构件10的第二表面的所述第二连接端子202的表面利用原子层沉积技术形成所述支撑连接件30时,容易对所述第一表面的所述量子比特101和所述读取腔102的电路结构造成破坏影响;此外,单独形成所述支撑连接件30之后,难以将所述支撑连接件30分别与所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20固定,在固定及焊接过程中,难以确保对准和焊接工艺。因此,本申请优选在所述第二连接端子202表面上形成支撑连接件30。
如图21所示,当在所述第二结构件20的第一表面上形成所述信号传输线201和所述第二连接端子202之后,利用紫外光刻工艺在所述第二连接端子202的表面形成所述支撑连接件30的图案;并利用电子束蒸发镀膜在所述支撑连接件30的图案内填充金属颗粒,形成具有指定尺寸的圆柱状的第四金属层(即支撑连接件30)。
其中,支撑连接件30不仅可以用于支撑所述第一结构件10和所述第二结构件20,还可以用于将所述第一结构件10的第二表面设置的所述第一连接端子103和所述第二结构件20的第一表面设置的所述第二连接端子202电连接,因此,所述支撑连接件30的材料也可以选择超导材料。
在步骤S301中,所述支撑连接件30是在所述第二连接端子202表面上直接形成的,即一端已经与所述第二连接端子202电连接,进而将所述支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第一连接端子103进行电连接。利用所述支撑连接件30,既可以将所述第一结构和所述第二结构进行支撑,也可以将所述第一结构和第二结构件20电连接,进而将超导量子芯片的电路结构(即量子比特101、读取腔102、信号传输线201)连通,从而组成完整的超导量子电路。
将所述支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第一连接端子103电连接的步骤,可以包括:利用倒装焊接技术将所述支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第一连接端子103焊接固定。
利用电子束蒸发镀膜技术形成支撑连接件30,在所述第二结构件20的第一表面设置的所述第二连接端子202的表面上生成所述支撑连接件30。同时,还需要所述将支撑连接件30的另一端与所述第一结构件10的第一连接端子103利用倒装焊接的方式进行固定连接。本申请选择材料铟作为支撑连接件30的材料,铟的熔点相对其他超导材料低一些,便于焊接,同时避免高温对所述第一金属层105的影响。
此外,不仅所述支撑连接件30的另一端需要与所述第一连接端子103利用焊接进行固定,所述支撑连接件30与所述第二连接端子202接触的表面,也需要利用倒装焊接的方式进行固定。将所述支撑连接件30的形状形成为圆柱形,与环绕所述第一通孔104设置的所述第一连接端子103的形状适配,保证所述支撑连接件30、所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202三者同轴设置,固定焊接时容易实现所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202以及所述第一通孔104的对准。
不仅如此,所述第一连接端子103在所述第一结构件10的第二表面是环绕所述第一通孔104设置的,所述第二连接端子202形成在所述第二结构件20的第一表面与所述第一连接端子103对应的位置,所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202均为圆柱形状,因此,将所述支撑连接件30的形状设置为圆柱形,所述支撑连接件30与第一连接端、第二连接端子202的接触面积大,在进行焊接时可以保证焊接效果以及导电效果。从而保证了超导量子芯片上每个所述量子比特101电路的一致性。
本申请通过在第一结构件10上形成量子比特101、读取腔102,并在第二结构件20上形成信号传输线201;将超导量子芯片的用于实施量子计算的电路结构(量子比特101和读取腔102)与用于实施量子比特101调控的信号传输线201进行分层并单独形成;并分别在第一结构件10上形成与量子比特101电连接的第一连接端子103、在所述第二结构件20上形成与所述信号传输线201进行电连接的第二连接端子202,并利用所述支撑连接件30将所述第一连接端子103和所述第二连接端子202电连接,从而构成了完整的超导量子芯片的电路结构。通过本申请的方法制备的超导量子芯片具有高集成度。
以上依据图式所示的实施例详细说明了本申请的构造、特征及作用效果,以上所述仅为本申请的较佳实施例,但本申请不以图面所示限定实施范围,凡是依照本申请的构想所作的改变,或修改为等同变化的等效实施例,仍未超出说明书与图示所涵盖的精神时,均应在本申请的保护范围内。
