Fast Charge Sensing of a Cavity-Coupled Double Quantum Dot Using a Josephson Parametric Amplifier

J. Stehlik, Y.-Y. Liu, C. M. Quintana +3 more

Double quantum dots (DQDs), sometimes referred to as ``artificial molecules'', are highly controllable quantum systems that serve as building blocks for spin-based quantum computation. A fast, high-fidelity charge sensor is needed for determining the number of electrons trapped in the DQD, and for spin-state readout. Here the authors integrate a Josephson parametric amplifier into the readout chain, improving the signal to noise ratio by a factor of 2000 and enabling live tuning of the DQD potential well, without the slow, painstaking adjustment of voltages on several electrodes.

On-chip Parametric Amplification in a Double Quantum Dots Circuit

Yong-Qiang Xu, Rui Wu, Si-Si Gu +8 more

In microwave-based quantum circuits, including double quantum dots (DQDs), superconducting qubits and spin qubits, parametric amplifiers are indispensable in achieving high-fidelity qubit readouts. Despite its importance, the application of parametric amplifiers is hampered by several challenges, such as high insertion losses, constrained tunability, and a pronounced vulnerability to magnetic fields. Here, we demonstrate an on-site single-atom parametric amplifier (SAPA) within a reconfigurable quantum circuit, which consists of a superconducting microwave cavity and two GaAs gate-defined DQDs. Leveraging the inherent nonlinearity of the DQD, a parametric gain exceeding 11 dB is achieved. This gain contributes to enhance the qubit readout, as evidenced by exceeding two times improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) when employing the DQD-based amplifier for reading out another DQD. Our work not only presents a versatile experimental platform with enhanced readout capabilities in quantum computing, but also introduces alternative choices of parametric amplifiers for a variety of microwave-based quantum circuits.

Parity and Singlet-Triplet High-Fidelity Readout in a Silicon Double Quantum Dot at 0.5 K

David J. Niegemann, Victor El-Homsy, Baptiste Jadot +14 more

Pauli-spin-blockade (PSB) measurements have so far achieved the highest fidelity of spin readout in semiconductor quantum dots, overcoming the 99% threshold. Moreover, in contrast to energy-selective readout, PSB is less error prone to thermal energy, an important feature for large-scale architectures that could be operated at temperatures above a few hundreds of millikelvins. In this work, we use rf reflectometry on a single-lead quantum dot to perform charge sensing and to probe the spin state of a double quantum dot at 0.5 K. At this relatively elevated temperature, we characterize both singlet-triplet and parity readout, which are complementary measurements to perform a complete readout of a two-spin system. We demonstrate high-fidelity spin readout with an average fidelity above 99.9 % for a readout time of 20 μs and 99 % for 4 μs. Finally, we succeed in initializing a singlet state in a single dot with a fidelity higher than 99 % and separate the two electrons while retaining the same spin state with a 95.6 % fidelity
