DESCRIPTION:Edoardo Charbon who is a Professor of Advanced Quantum Archite
 ctures at EPFL. He has consulted with numerous organizations\, including B
 osch\, X-Fab\, Texas Instruments and more. He was with Cadence Design Syst
 ems as the Architect of the company's initiative on information hiding for
  intellectual property protection. In 2000\, Charbon joined Canesta Inc. a
 s the Chief Architect\, where he led the development of wireless 3-D CMOS 
 image sensors. Moreover\, he was with Delft University of Technology’s a
 s Chair of VLSI design. He has been the driving force behind the creation 
 of deep-submicron CMOS SPAD technology. His interests span from 3-D vision
 \, LiDAR\, FLIM\, FCS\, NIROT to super-resolution microscopy\, time-resolv
 ed Raman spectroscopy\, and cryo-CMOS circuits and systems for quantum com
 puting. Dr. Charbon is a distinguished visiting scholar of the W. M. Keck 
 Institute for Space at Caltech\, a fellow of the Kavli Institute of Nanosc
 ience Delft\, a distinguished lecturer of the IEEE Photonics Society\, and
  a fellow of the IEEE.\nWith the steady growth in the number of qubits bei
 ng demonstrated in solid-state technologies\, so does the demand for scala
 ble classical control to achieve a fault-tolerant quantum computer. We adv
 ocate the use of cryogenically operated complementary metal-oxide semicond
 uctor (Cryo-CMOS) technology to achieve compact\, fully scalable systems f
 or the control of large arrays of qubits. In the talk\, the challenges of 
 designing and operating complex circuits and systems at 4K and below will 
 be outlined\, along with preliminary results achieved in the control and r
 ead-out of qubits by ad hoc integrated circuits that were optimized to o
 perate at low power to be compatible with standard dilution fridges. Prof.
  Charbon will conclude with a perspective on the field and its trends.
