Quantum memory node based on a semiconductor double quantum dot in a laser-controlled optical resonator

Alexander V. Tsukanov, I. Yu. Kateev

The concept of a quantum node consisting of a memory qubit and a frequency convertor is proposed and analysed. The memory qubit is presented by a semiconductor four-level double quantum dot (DQD) placed in an optical microresonator (MR). The DQD contains an electron in the quantised part of the conduction band and the MR can be populated by a certain number of photons. The DQD and MR states are controlled be applying the laser and electrostatic fields. The difference between the telecommunication frequency of the photon (transport qubit) supplied to the system through a waveguide and the frequency of the electronic transition in the DQD is compensated for using an auxiliary element, i.e. a frequency convertor based on a single quantum dot (QD). This design allows the electron – photon state of the hybrid system to be controlled by an appropriate variation of the field parameters and the switching between resonance and nonresonance DQD and MR interaction regimes. As an example, a GaAs DQD placed in a microdisk MR is studied. A numerical technique for modelling an optical spectrum of a microdisk MR with an additional layer (AL) deposited on its surface is developed. Using this technique, the effect of the AL on the MR eigenmode properties is investigated and the possibility of tuning its frequency to the QD electronic transition frequency by depositing an AL on the disk surface is demonstrated.

Tunneling Current in a Double Quantum Dot Driven by Two-Mode Microwave Photons

Weici Liu, Faqiang Wang

In this study, a model of a double-quantum-dot system driven by two-mode microwave photons is presented. The quantum master equation is derived from the system’s Hamiltonians, and the expression for the steady-state current is obtained. Electronic tunneling properties are then analyzed. The results revealed that different two-mode quantum microwave photons have varying effects on the tunneling current within the double-quantum-dot system, with a steplike current trend emerging. The tunneling current showed pronounced negative differential conductance for both coherent and squeezed microwave photons. Furthermore, the tunneling current was significantly influenced by changing the squeezing coefficient and phase. The asymmetric evolution of the tunneling current under varying bias voltages also depends on the asymmetry in system parameters. These findings are crucial for manipulating the transport properties of double-quantum-dot systems in nanostructured devices.

Coherent Spin Dynamics in Open Driven Double Quantum Dots

Rafael Sánchez, Carlos López-Monís, Gloria Platero

We analyze the charge and spin dynamics in a DC biased double quantum dot driven by crossed DC and AC magnetic fields. In this configuration, spatial delocalization due to inter-dot tunnel competes with intra-dot spin rotations induced by the time dependent magnetic field, giving rise to a complicated time dependent behavior of the tunnelling current. When the Zeeman splitting has the same value in both dots and spin flip is negligible, the electrons remain in the triplet subspace (dark subspace) performing coherent spin rotations and the current does not flow. This electronic trapping is removed either by finite spin relaxation or when the Zeeman splitting is different in each quantum dot. In the first case, our results show that measuring the current will allow to get information on the spin relaxation time. In the last case, we will show that applying a resonant bichromatic magnetic field, the electrons become trapped in a coherent superposition of states and electronic transport is blocked. Then, manipulating AC magnetic fields, electrons are driven to perform coherent spin rotations which can be unambiguously detected by direct measurement of the tunneling current.
