Adiabatic optical entanglement between electron spins in separate quantum dots

Abstract

We present an adiabatic approach to the design of entangling quantum operations with two electron spins localized in separate InAs/GaAs quantum dots via the Coulomb interaction between optically-excited localized states. Slowly-varying optical pulses minimize the pulse noise and the relaxation of the excited states. An analytic "dressed state" solution gives a clear physical picture of the entangling process, and a numerical solution is used to investigate the error dynamics. For two vertically-stacked quantum dots we show that, for a broad range of dot parameters, a two-spin state with concurrence $C>0.85$ can be obtained by four optical pulses with durations $\sim 0.1-1$ ns.
