Coherent Singlet-Triplet Oscillations in a Silicon-based Double Quantum Dot

ORAL

Abstract

We have performed coherent spin manipulation of a singlet-triplet qubit in a Si/SiGe double quantum-dot device fabricated in an undoped heterostructure. A charge stability diagram showed that the (0,0) charge state was reached and Pauli spin blockade was detected at the (1,1)-(0,2) anticrossing. A singlet-triplet splitting of $\sim $140 $\mu $eV in the (0,2) charge state provided a read-out window sufficiently wide for singlet-triplet discrimination. We used the S/T$_{-}$ spin funnel, Rabi oscillation, and $T_{2}$* pulsing experiments to measure (1,1) exchange energies spanning $\sim $0.6-700 neV over a large detuning range and measured a $T_{2}$* of 360 ns, consistent with theoretical expectations for our device.
