Coherent Control and Manipulation of Three Spin States in a Triple Quantum Dot

Andy S. Sachrajda

The triple quantum dot energy level spectrum is far more complex than its double quantum dot counterpart. As a result it is a challenge to cleanly manipulate only the two required qubit states without invoking more complex multistate coherent evolution. In this talk I will describe experiments and modeling of lateral triple quantum dot devices where by suitable device gate (i.e. energy level spectrum) tuning and pulse characteristics we were able to characterize and manipulate various three spin qubit species. In particular I will describe measurements where the Landau-Zener –Stuckelberg approach previously demonstrated in double dots is extended to threeinteracting spin states permitting us to demonstrate phenomena such as pairwise exchange control. I will also demonstrate how by tuning the experimental parameters one can controllably switch to coherent oscillations originating from alternative potentially useful qubit states and how to distinguish them.

Interplay of exchange and superexchange in triple quantum dots

Kuangyin Deng, Edwin Barnes

Recent experiments on semiconductor quantum dots have demonstrated the ability to utilize a large quantum dot to mediate superexchange interactions and generate entanglement between distant spins. This opens up a possible mechanism for selectively coupling pairs of remote spins in a larger network of quantum dots. Taking advantage of this opportunity requires a deeper understanding of how to control superexchange interactions in these systems. Here, we consider a triple-dot system arranged in linear and triangular geometries. We use configuration interaction calculations to investigate the interplay of superexchange and nearest-neighbor exchange interactions as the location, detuning, and electron number of the mediating dot are varied. We show that superexchange processes strongly enhance and increase the range of the net spin-spin exchange as the dots approach a linear configuration. Furthermore, we show that the strength of the exchange interaction depends sensitively on the number of electrons in the mediator. Our results can be used as a guide to assist further experimental efforts towards scaling up to larger, two-dimensional quantum dot arrays.

Resonant exchange operation in triple-quantum-dot qubits for spin–photon transduction

Andrew Pan, Tyler Keating, Mark F. Gyure +5 more

Abstract Triple quantum dots (TQDs) are promising semiconductor spin qubits because of their all-electrical control via fast, tunable exchange interactions and immunity to global magnetic fluctuations. These qubits can experience strong transverse interaction with photons in the resonant exchange (RX) regime, when exchange is simultaneously active on both qubit axes. However, most theoretical work has been based on phenomenological Fermi–Hubbard models, which may not fully capture the complexity of the qubit spin-charge states in this regime. Here we investigate exchange in Si/SiGe and GaAs TQDs using full configuration interaction (FCI) calculations which better describe practical device operation. We show that high exchange operation in general, and the RX regime in particular, can differ significantly from simple models, presenting new challenges and opportunities for spin–photon coupling. We highlight the impact of device electrostatics and effective mass on exchange and identify a new operating point (XRX) where strong spin–photon coupling is most likely to occur in Si/SiGe TQDs. Based on our numerical results, we analyze the feasibility of a remote entanglement cavity iSWAP protocol and discuss design pathways for improving fidelity. Our analysis provides insight into the requirements for TQD spin–photon transduction and demonstrates more generally the necessity of accurate modeling of exchange in spin qubits.
