        • (C) quantum control components and quantum measurement devices specially designed for items specified in clause (A);

        • NOTE

          1 Items in clause (B) include semiconductor, superconducting and photonic qubit chips and chip arrays, surface ion trap arrays, other qubit confinement technology, and coherent interconnects between such items.

          2 Clause (C) applies to items designed for calibrating, initializing, manipulating or measuring the resident qubits of a quantum computer.

          3 Subparagraph (ii) applies to circuit model (or gate-based) and one-way (or measurement-based) quantum computers but does not apply to adiabatic (or annealing) quantum computers.

          4 Items specified in subparagraph (ii) may not necessarily physically contain any qubits. For example, quantum computers based on photonic schemes do not permanently contain a physical item that can be identified as a qubit. Instead, photonic qubits are generated while the computer is operating and then later discarded.

          5 In subparagraph (ii), physical qubit means a two-level quantum system used to represent the elementary unit of quantum logic by means of manipulations and measurements that are not error-corrected. Physical qubits are distinguished from logical qubits, in that logical qubits are error-corrected qubits composed of many physical qubits.

          6 In clause (A), supporting 34 or more fully controlled, connected, working physical qubits refers to the capability of a quantum computer to confine, control, measure and process the quantum information embodied in 34 or more physical qubits.

          7 In clause (A), fully controlled means that the physical qubit can be calibrated, initialized, gated and read out, as necessary.

          8 In clause (A), connected means that two-qubit gate operations can be performed between any arbitrary pair of the available working physical qubits. This does not necessarily entail all-to-all connectivity.

          9 In clause (A), working means that the physical qubit performs universal quantum computational work according to the system specifications for qubit operational fidelity.

          10 In clause (A), C-NOT error means the average physical gate error for the nearest-neighbour two-physical qubit Controlled-NOT (C-NOT) gates.

            For the purposes of clause (A), silicon-germanium to silicon (SiGe:Si) etch selectivity is measured for a germanium (Ge) concentration of greater than or equal to 30% (Si_0.70Ge_0.30).

        • (B) equipment designed or modified for anisotropic dry etching, and having all of the following:

          • (I) one or more Radio Frequency (RF) power sources with at least one pulsed Radio Frequency (RF) output,

          • (III) an electrostatic chuck with 20 or more individually controllable variable temperature elements, and

          • NOTE

            1 Clause (B) includes etching using Radio Frequency (RF) pulse excited plasma, pulsed duty cycle excited plasma, pulsed voltage on electrodes modified plasma, or cyclic injection and purging of gases combined with a plasma; plasma atomic layer etching; and plasma quasi-atomic layer etching.

            2 Subparagraph (iii) includes etching by radicals, ions, sequential reactions, or non-sequential reaction.

            3 In note 2, radical means an atom, molecule, or ion that has an unpaired electron in an open electron shell configuration.

      • (iv) Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) equipment designed for imaging semiconductor devices or integrated circuits, and having all of the following:

        • (A) a stage placement accuracy less (better) than 30 nm,

        • (B) a stage positioning measurement performed using laser interferometry,

        • (C) a position calibration within a Field-of-View (FOV) based on laser interferometer length-scale measurement,

        • NOTE

          1 Subparagraph (iv) includes Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) equipment designed for chip design recovery.

          2 Subparagraph (iv) does not apply to Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) equipment designed to accept a Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI) standard wafer carrier, such as a 200 mm or larger Front Opening Unified Pod (FOUP).
