US Patent 11183564 Quantum dot devices with strain control

Disclosed herein are quantum dot devices, as well as related computing devices and methods. For example, in some embodiments, a quantum dot device may include: a quantum well stack including a quantum well layer and a barrier layer; a first gate metal above the quantum well stack, wherein the barrier layer is between the first gate metal and the quantum well layer; and a second gate metal above the quantum well stack, wherein the barrier layer is between the second gate metal and the quantum well layer, and a material structure of the second gate metal is different from a material structure of the first gate metal.
