Robust entangling gate for capacitively coupled few-electron singlet-triplet qubits
Guo Xuan Chan, Xin Wang
The search for a sweet spot, the locus in qubit parameters where quantum control is first-order insensitive to noises, is key to achieve high-fidelity quantum gates. Efforts to search for such a sweet spot in conventional double-quantum-dot singlet-triplet qubits where each dot hosts one electron (``two-electron singlet-triplet qubit''), especially for two-qubit operations, have been unsuccessful. Here we consider singlet-triplet qubits allowing each dot to host more than one electron, with a total of four electrons in the double quantum dots (``four-electron singlet-triplet qubit''). We theoretically demonstrate, using configuration interaction calculations, that sweet spots appear in this coupled qubit system. We further demonstrate that, under realistic charge noise and hyperfine noise, a two-qubit operation at the proposed sweet spot could offer gate fidelities ($\ensuremath{\sim}99%$) that are higher than the conventional two-electron singlet-triplet qubit system ($\ensuremath{\sim}90%$). Our results should facilitate realization of high-fidelity two-qubit gates in singlet-triplet qubit systems.
