Fabrication and measurement of an RF-QPC in an undoped Si/SiGe heterostructure

ORAL

Abstract

We perform radio-frequency reflectometry measurements on a quantum point contact fabricated in an undoped accumulation-mode Si/SiGe heterostructure. This device is a promising candidate for high-bandwidth charge sensing in Si/SiGe, and it provides the capability for fast qubit readout in this material. We show operation of the device with a well-defined resonance that can be modulated by a nearby gate. We will discuss design challenges that are particular to accumulation-mode structures and how they can be resolved.
