Spin measurement in an undoped Si/SiGe double quantum dot incorporating a micromagnet

ORAL

Abstract

We present measurements on a double dot formed in an accumulation-mode undoped Si/SiGe heterostructure. The double dot incorporates a proximal micromagnet to generate a stable magnetic field difference between the quantum dots. The gate design incorporates two layers of gates, and the upper layer of gates is split into five different sections to decrease crosstalk between different gates. A novel pattern of the lower layer gates enhances the tunability of tunnel rates. We will describe our attempts to create a singlet-triplet qubit in this device.
