Complementary Quality Measures for Noisy Braiding Operations
Matthias Droth
Topological quantum computing with non-abelian anyons in a network of one-dimensional chains relies on braiding operations. In real devices, a noisy environment may compromise thes…
Reply to "Comment on 'Piezoelectricity in planar boron nitride via a geometric phase'"
Matthias Droth, Guido Burkard, Vitor M. Pereira
In relation to our original paper [M. Droth et al., Phys. Rev. B 94, 075404 (2016)], the Comment by Li et al. [Phys. Rev. B 98, 167403 (2018)] claims to have identified a "mistake…
Electron-electron attraction in an engineered electromechanical system
Gábor Széchenyi, András Pályi, Matthias Droth
Two electrons in a quantum dot repel each other: their interaction can be characterized by a positive interaction energy. From the theory of superconductivity, we also know that me…
Piezoelectricity in planar boron nitride via a geometric phase
Matthias Droth, Guido Burkard, Vitor M. Pereira
Due to their low surface mass density, two-dimensional materials with a strong piezoelectric response are interesting for nanoelectromechanical systems with high force sensitivity.…
Spintronics with graphene quantum dots
Matthias Droth, Guido Burkard
Thanks to its intrinsic ability to preserve spin coherence, graphene is a prime material for spintronics. In this review article, we summarize recent achievements related to spintr…
Tuning antiferromagnetism of vacancies with magnetic fields in graphene nanoflakes
Matthias Droth, Guido Burkard
Graphene nanoflakes are interesting because electrons are naturally confined in these quasi-zero-dimensional structures, whereas confinement in bulk graphene would require a band g…
Electron Spin Relaxation in Graphene Nanoribbon Quantum Dots
Matthias Droth, Guido Burkard
Graphene is promising as a host material for electron spin qubits because of its predicted potential for long coherence times. In armchair graphene nanoribbons (aGNRs) a small band…
Acoustic phonons and spin relaxation in graphene nanoribbons
Matthias Droth, Guido Burkard
Phonons are responsible for limiting both the electron mobility and the spin relaxation time in solids and provide a mechanism for thermal transport. In view of a possible transist…
