Extended coherence of electron and nuclear spins in epitaxial purified silicon devices fabricated by atomic lithography.

ORAL

Abstract

The nuclear spin free environment in isotopically pure silicon dramatically supresses magnetic noise, giving rise to unprecedented coherence times of spin qubits [1]. Likewise, the single crystal environment provided by epitaxial growth exhibits extremely low level of charge noise, crucial for high performance of electrically controlled operations of a qubit in a nanoelectronic device [2]. We have recently realised precision donor qubits in isotopically pure crystalline silicon-28 and present our results to benchmark against charge and magnetic noise measurements in natural silicon, highlighting that they achieve the necessary coherence properties for quantum information processing.
