On CMOS Scaling
• Atomistix shows Si MOSFET scalable to 2 nm
CMOS HF performance scaling uncertain due to
– Ballistic transport
– Bandgap increase
– Surface scattering
• BEOL kills intrinsic MOSFET performance
• HF circuit performance scaling already peaked at 28nm-40nm

On CMOS Qubits
Quantum computing is NOT digital
Need energy deltas > 1 meV for > 10 K operation
Need sub-5nm dimensions in all directions
Need fR > 200 GHz and/or B > 10 T

Si QC must be compatible with CMOS at 4 K or higher
Needs skilled mm-wave IC designers and measurements
