Physical quantum processor. a A silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer is processed, such that the bottom layer of isotopically enriched silicon-28 contains the 2D qubit array and the top layer of silicon forms the transistors to operate the qubits. These are interconnected through the oxide regions using polysilicon (or other metal) vias. b Electrical circuit for the control of one Q-gate and one J-gate allowing the required individual, row-by-row, or global operations, as explained in the main text. c Physical architecture to operate one unit module containing 480 qubits. The inset on the bottom right shows a plan view cross-section through the qubit plane. Each J gate and qubit is connected via the circuit shown in b
