In this theoretical study we qualitatively and quantitatively investigate the electric dipole spin resonance (EDSR) in a single Si/SiGe quantum dot in the presence of a magnetic field gradient, e.g., produced by a ferromagnet. We model a situation in which the control of electron spin states is achieved by applying an oscillatory electric field, inducing real-space oscillations of the electron inside the quantum dot. One of the goals of our study is to present a microscopic theory of valley…

Dressed photon-orbital states in a quantum dot: Intervalley spin resonance

The valley degree of freedom is intrinsic to spin qubits in Si/SiGe quantum dots. It has been viewed alternately as a hazard, especially when the lowest valley-orbit splitting is small compared to…

The goal of this article is to review the progress of three-electron spin qubits from their inception to the state of the art, with the main focus towards the exchange-only qubit and its modification, the RX qubit, whose single-qubit operations are realized by driving the qubit at its resonant frequency in the microwave range similar to electron spin resonance.

Quadrupolar Exchange-Only Spin Qubit.

We propose a quadrupolar exchange-only spin qubit that is highly robust against charge noise and nuclear spin dephasing, the dominant decoherence mechanisms in quantum dots. The qubit consists of…

High-fidelity manipulation is the key for the physical realization of fault-tolerant quantum computation. Here, we present a protocol to realize universal nonadiabatic geometric gates for…

Exactly solving the Kitaev chain and generating Majorana-zero-modes out of noisy qubits

Majorana-zero-modes (MZMs) were predicted to exist as edge states of a physical system called the Kitaev chain. MZMs should host particles that are their own antiparticles and could be used as a…
