Design of a Single-Shot Electron detector with sub-electron sensitivity for electron flying qubit operation

arXiv:2002.03947

Abstract

The recent realization of coherent single-electron sources in ballistic conductors let us envision performing time-resolved electronic interferometry experiments analogous to quantum optics experiments.One could eventually use propagating electronic excitations as flying qubits. However an important missing brick is the single-shot electron detection which would enable a complete quantum information operation with flying qubits. Here, we propose and discuss the design of a single charge detector able to achieve in-flight detection of electron flying qubits. Its sub-electron sensitivity would allow the detection of the fractionally charged flying anyons of the Fractional Quantum Hall Effect and would enable the detection of anyonic statistics using coincidence measurements.
