Progress towards microwave readout of a silicon double quantum dot

Microwave resonators coupled to quantum systems have been used for fast dispersive measurement in several different architectures in solid state and atomic physics. The electronic states of a semiconductor quantum dot represent a promising candidate for quantum information processing. Our work is geared toward developing a fast, non-demolition readout of a semiconductor qubit in silicon through coupling to a superconducting microwave resonator. We report progress on a novel design of a lateral
