Article Abstract

Realizing a strong coupling between spin and resonator is an important issue for scalable quantum computation in semiconductor systems. Benefiting from the advantages of a strong spin-orbit coupling strength and long coherence time, the Ge hut wire, which is proposed to be site-controlled grown for scalability, is considered to be a promising candidate to achieve this goal. Here we present a hybrid architecture in which an on-chip superconducting microwave resonator is coupled to the holes in a Ge quantum dot. The charge stability diagram can be obtained from the amplitude and phase responses of the resonator independently from the DC transport measurement. Furthermore, we estimate the hole-resonator coupling rate of g/2π = 148 MHz in the single quantum dot-resonator system and estimate the spin-resonator coupling rate g/2π to be in the range 2-4 MHz. We anticipate that strong coupling between hole spins and microwave photons in a Ge hut wire is feasible with optimized schemes in the future.

Hole spin qubits based on germanium (Ge) have strong tunable spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and ultrafast qubit operation speed. Here we report that the Rabi frequency () of a hole spin qubit in a Ge hut wire (HW) double quantum dot (DQD) is electrically tuned through the detuning energy (ϵ) and middle gate voltage (). gradually decreases with increasing ϵ; on the contrary, is positively correlated with .

Ge/Si nanowires are predicted to be a promising platform for spin and even topological qubits. While for large-scale integration of these devices, nanowires with fully controlled positions and arrangements are a prerequisite. Here, we have reported ordered Ge hut wires by multilayer heteroepitaxy on patterned Si (001) substrates.

Operation speed and coherence time are two core measures for the viability of a qubit. Strong spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and relatively weak hyperfine interaction make holes in germanium (Ge) intriguing candidates for spin qubits with rapid, all-electrical coherent control. Here we report ultrafast single-spin manipulation in a hole-based double quantum dot in a germanium hut wire (GHW).

Holes in nanowires have drawn significant attention in recent years because of the strong spin-orbit interaction, which plays an important role in constructing Majorana zero modes and manipulating spin-orbit qubits. Here, from the strongly anisotropic leakage current in the spin blockade regime for a double dot, we extract the full -tensor and find that the spin-orbit field is in plane with an azimuthal angle of 59° to the axis of the nanowire. The direction of the spin-orbit field indicates a strong spin-orbit interaction along the nanowire, which may have originated from the interface inversion asymmetry in Ge hut wires.

Using inelastic cotunneling spectroscopy we observe a zero field splitting within the spin triplet manifold of Ge hut wire quantum dots. The states with spin ±1 in the confinement direction are energetically favored by up to 55 μeV compared to the spin 0 triplet state because of the strong spin-orbit coupling. The reported effect should be observable in a broad class of strongly confined hole quantum-dot systems and might need to be considered when operating hole spin qubits.
