Coherent Control of a Triangular Exchange-Only Spin Qubit

ORAL

Abstract

Until recently, spin qubit investigations were limited to linear arrays of spins. Here, we demonstrate a triple-quantum-dot (TQD) array with the quantum dots arranged in a close-packed triangular geometry [1]. Our characterization includes measurements of charge stability diagrams in the few-electron regime as well as the characterization of a TQD exchange-only (EO) qubit, which serves as a proxy for the coherent performance of the joint electronic spin state of the dots. Coherent performance in the triangular array is comparable to state-of-the-art demonstrations of EO qubits fabricated in a conventional linear geometry [2].
