Coherent spin manipulation with a triple quantum dot

ORAL

Abstract

Recently, Landau-Zener-Stuckelberg (LZS) oscillations have been demonstrated in a double quantum dot device [1]. In this talk we demonstrate LZS oscillations in a triple quantum dot environment. Our triple quantum dot design allows us to tune to either the charge or spin qubit regimes. Using a pulsing technique in the spin qubit regime, we create a superposition of triple quantum dot states, allow for phase accumulation, and interfere. We demonstrate coherent LZS oscillations with three spins across the triple quantum dot structure. We investigate their dependence on pulse rise time, separation time, energy detuning, and magnetic field. \\[4pt] [1] J. R. Petta et al., Science 327, 669 (2010).
