Gate controlled unitary operation on flying spin qubits in quantum Hall edge states

Abstract
Spin and orbital freedoms of electrons traveling on spin-resolved quantum Hall edge states (quantum Hall ferromagnets) are maximally entangled. The unitary operations on these two freedoms are hence equivalent, which means one can manipulate the spins with non-magnetic methods through the orbitals. If one takes the quantization axis of spins along the magnetization axis, the zenith angle is determined by the partition rate of spin-separated edges while the azimuth angle is defined as the phase difference between the edges. Utilizing these properties, we have realized electrically controlled unitary operation on the electron spins on the quantum Hall ferromagnets. The zenith angle of the spin was controlled through the radius of gyration at a corner by means of applying voltage to a thin gate placed at one edge. The subsequent rotation in the azimuth angle was controlled via the distance between the edge channels also by a gate voltage. The combination of the two operations constitutes the first systematic electric operation on spins in the quantum Hall edge channels.
