High-fidelity quantum gates in Si/SiGe double quantum dots

Maximilian Rimbach-Russ, D. M. Zajac, Anthony J. Sigillito +4 more

Motivated by recent experiments of Zajac et al. [Science 359, 439 (2018)], we theoretically describe high-fidelity two-qubit gates using the exchange interaction between the spins in neighboring quantum dots subject to a magnetic field gradient. We use a combination of analytical calculations and numerical simulations to provide the optimal pulse sequences and parameter settings for the gate operation. We present a synchronization method which avoids detrimental spin flips during the gate operation and provide details about phase mismatches accumulated during the two-qubit gates which occur due to residual exchange interaction, nonadiabatic pulses, and off-resonant driving. By adjusting the gate times, synchronizing the resonant and off-resonant transitions, and compensating these phase mismatches by phase control, the overall gate fidelity can be increased significantly.

High-fidelity entangling gate for double-quantum-dot spin qubits

John M. Nichol, Lucas Orona, Shannon P. Harvey +4 more

Abstract Electron spins in semiconductors are promising qubits because their long coherence times enable nearly 10 9 coherent quantum gate operations. However, developing a scalable high-fidelity two-qubit gate remains challenging. Here, we demonstrate an entangling gate between two double-quantum-dot spin qubits in GaAs by using a magnetic field gradient between the two dots in each qubit to suppress decoherence due to charge noise. When the magnetic gradient dominates the voltage-controlled exchange interaction between electrons, qubit coherence times increase by an order of magnitude. Using randomized benchmarking, we measure single-qubit gate fidelities of ~ 99%, and through self-consistent quantum measurement, state, and process tomography, we measure an entangling gate fidelity of 90%. In the future, operating double quantum dot spin qubits with large gradients in nuclear-spin-free materials, such as Si, should enable a two-qubit gate fidelity surpassing the threshold for fault-tolerant quantum information processing.

High-fidelity optical quantum gates based on type-II double quantum dots in a nanowire

Masoomeh Taherkhani, Morten Willatzen, Emil V. Denning +2 more

We propose an optical gating scheme for quantum computing based on crystal-phase type II double quantum dots in an InP nanowire. The qubit is encoded on the electron spin and the gate operations are performed using stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP), using the orbital degree of freedom in double quantum dots to form an auxiliary ground state. Successful STIRAP gating processes require an efficient coupling of both qubit ground states of the double quantum dot to the gating auxiliary ground state, and we demonstrate that this can be achieved using a charged exciton state. Crucially, by using type II dots, the hole is localized between the two spatially separated electrons in the charged exciton complex, thereby efficiently coupling the electron ground-state orbitals. By taking advantage of the high-fidelity state transfer by means of STIRAP in type II double quantum dots, we propose a protocol for coherently manipulating the spin-orbital quantum state of confined electrons in a quantum dot chain of an InP nanowire. We subsequently exploit the protocol to realize single- and two-qubit gates with fidelity above 0.99.
