Silicon quantum dots are attractive for the implementation of large spin-based quantum
processors in part due to prospects of industrial foundry fabrication. However, the large
effective mass associated with electrons in silicon traditionally limits single-electron opera-
tions to devices fabricated in customized academic clean rooms. Here, we demonstrate
single-electron occupations in all four quantum dots of a 2 x 2 split-gate silicon device
fabricated entirely by 300-mm-wafer foundry processes. By applying gate-voltage pulses
while performing high-frequency reflectometry off one gate electrode, we perform single-
electron operations within the array that demonstrate single-shot detection of electron
tunneling and an overall adjustability of tunneling times by a global top gate electrode. Lastly,
we use the two-dimensional aspect of the quantum dot array to exchange two electrons by
spatial permutation, which may find applications in permutation-based quantum algorithms.
