Abstract
We present a quantum dot structure fabricated by the lithographic positioning, which can be used as a prototype of the quantum dot register for quantum computing. Using simple model calculations we show that parameters of our quantum dot structure are very close to the ones required for two possible embodiments of a quantum computer. Results of numerical simulation of the quantum dot register, as well as discussion of materials and technological issues of fabrication of quantum logic gates are also presented.
