Measurement of cryoelectronics heating using a local quantum dot thermometer in silicon

Silicon technology offers the enticing opportunity for monolithic integration of quantum and classical electronic circuits. However, the power consumption levels of classical electronics may compromise the local chip temperature and hence the fidelity of qubit operations. Here, we utilize a quantum-dot-based thermometer embedded in an industry-standard silicon field-effect transistor (FET), to assess the local temperature increase produced by an active FET placed in close proximity. We study the impact of both static and dynamic operation regimes. When the FET is operated statically, we find a power budget of 45 nW at 100 nm separation whereas at 216 $\mu$m the power budget raises to 150 $\mu$W. When operated dynamically, we observe negligible temperature increase for the switch frequencies tested up to 10 MHz. Our work describes a method to accurately map out the available power budget at a distance from a solid-state quantum processor and indicate under which conditions cryoelectronics circuits may allow the operation of hybrid quantum-classical systems.
