Quantifying error and leakage in an encoded Si/SiGe triple-dot qubit

R. W. Andrews, C. Jones, M. D. Reed +13

Quantum computation requires qubits that satisfy often-conflicting criteria, including scalable control and long-lasting coherence. One approach to creating a suitable qubit is to…

Spin-Blockade Spectroscopy of Si/SiGe Quantum Dots

A. M. Jones, E. J. Pritchett, E. H. Chen +15

We implement a technique for measuring the singlet-triplet energy splitting responsible for spin-to-charge conversion in semiconductor quantum dots. This method, which requires fas…
