We report magneto-transport studies of a two-dimensional electron system formed in an inversion layer at the interface between a hydrogen-passivated Si(111) surface and vacuum. Measurements in the integer quantum Hall regime demonstrate the…

Spin qubits hosted in silicon (Si) quantum dots (QD) are attractive due to their exceptionally long coherence times and compatibility with the silicon transistor platform. To achieve electrical control of spins for qubit scalability, recent…

Electron spins in silicon quantum dots are excellent qubits because they have long coherence times, high gate fidelities, and are compatible with advanced semiconductor manufacturing techniques. The valley degree of freedom, which results…

The valley splitting, which lifts the degeneracy of the lowest two valley states in a SiO$_2$/(100)Si/SiO$_2$ quantum well is examined through transport measurements. We demonstrate that the valley splitting can be observed directly as a…

In Si quantum dots, valley degree of freedom, in particular the generally small valley splitting and the dot-dependent valley-orbit phase, adds complexities to the low-energy electron dynamics and the associated spin qubit manipulation.…
