High-fidelity resonant gating of a silicon-based quantum dot hybrid qubit

Abstract

AbstractWe implement resonant single qubit operations on a semiconductor hybrid qubit hosted in a three-electron Si/SiGe double quantum dot structure. By resonantly modulating the double dot energy detuning and employing electron tunnelling-based readout, we achieve fast (>100 MHz) Rabi oscillations and purely electrical manipulations of the three-electron spin states. We demonstrate universal single qubit gates using a Ramsey pulse sequence as well as microwave phase control, the latter of which shows control of an arbitrary rotation axis on the X–Y plane of the Bloch sphere. Quantum process tomography yields π rotation gate fidelities higher than 93 (96)% around the X (Z) axis of the Bloch sphere. We further show that the implementation of dynamic decoupling sequences on the hybrid qubit enables coherence times longer than 150 ns.
