<p>An integrated circuit, incorporating a semiconductor device forming the source of a single photon, comprises on a silicon substrate (SB): (a) a MOS transistor (TR) having a grid in the shape of a mushroom, capable of delivering on its drain, in a controlled manner, a single electron in response to a control voltage applied on its grid; (b) at least one compatible silicon quantum box (BQ), electrically coupled to the drain region (D) of the transistor, and capable of emitting a single photon on the reception of a single electron emitted by the transistor. Independent claims are also included for: (a) a cryptographic device incorporating this integrated circuit; (b) a method for the fabrication of this integrated circuit; (c) a method for the emission of a single photon using this integrated circuit.</p> |
