Electrical manipulation of a hole `spin'-orbit qubit in nanowire quantum dot: the nontrivial magnetic field effects

Abstract

Strong `spin'-orbit coupled one-dimensional hole gas is achievable in a Ge nanowire in the presence of a strong magnetic field. The strong magnetic field lifts the two-fold degeneracy in the hole subband dispersions, so that the effective low-energy subband dispersion exhibits strong `spin'-orbit coupling. Here, we study the electrical `spin' manipulation in a Ge nanowire quantum dot for both the lowest and second lowest hole subband dispersions. Using a finite square well to model the quantum dot confining potential, we calculate exactly the level splitting of the `spin'-orbit qubit and the Rabi frequency in the electric-dipole `spin' resonance. The `spin'-orbit coupling modulated longitudinal $g$-factor $g_{\mathrm{so}}$ is not only non-vanishing but also magnetic field dependent. Moreover, the `spin'-orbit couplings of the lowest and second lowest subband dispersions have opposite magnetic dependences, so that the results for these two subband dispersions are totally different.
