How NOT to build control-target gates in semiconductor quantum dots and beyond

Roman Korol, John Nichol, Ignacio Franco

Universal quantum computation requires single-qubit control together with at least one entangling two-qubit gate. CNOT and CROT gates are two famous examples of such gates, wherein…

Phase locking nuclear spins in silicon with spin-orbit coupling

Habitamu Y. Walelign, Manas Ranjan Sahu, John M. Nichol

Because they have such long coherence times, nuclear spins have extraordinary potential for use in quantum information processing devices. However, coherent nuclear spin control ge…

Stochastic trajectories and excursions in a double quantum dot system

Guilherme Fiusa, Pedro E. Harunari, Alberto J. B. Rosal +2

We investigate the trajectory-level dynamics of a double quantum dot system using the newly developed formalism of stochastic excursions. This approach extends full counting statis…

Measuring and correcting nanosecond pulse distortions in quantum-dot spin qubits

Jiheng Duan, Fernando Torres-Leal, John M. Nichol

Gate-defined semiconductor quantum dots utilize fast electrical control to manipulate spin and charge states of individual electrons. Electrical pulse distortions can limit control…

Spin qubit shuttling between coupled quantum dots with inhomogeneous Landé g-tensors

Zhi-Hai Liu, Xiao-Fei Liu, H. Q. Xu

By utilizing the site-dependent spin quantization axis in semiconductor quantum dot (QD) arrays, shuttling-based spin qubit gates have become an appealing approach to realize scala…

Measuring pulse heating in Si quantum dots with individual two-level fluctuators

Feiyang Ye, Lokendra S. Dhami, John M. Nichol

To encode quantum information in semiconductor spin qubits, voltage pulses are necessary for initialization, gate operation, and readout. However, these pulses dissipate heat, shif…
