As the deepest group V donor in Si, Bi has by far the largest hyperfine interaction, and also a large I=9/2 nuclear spin. At zero field this splits the donor ground state into states having total spin 5 and 4, which are fully resolved in…
Donors in silicon are now demonstrated as one of the leading candidates for implementing qubits and quantum information processing. Single qubit operations, measurements and long coherence times are firmly established, but progress on…
We present a complete theoretical treatment of Stark effects in doped silicon, whose predictions are supported by experimental measurements. A multi-valley effective mass theory, dealing non-perturbatively with valley-orbit interactions…
This work reports an ESR study of low energy, low fluence phosphorus ion implantation into silicon in order to observe the activation of phosphorus donors placed in close proximity to the Si-SiO2 interface. Electrical measurements, which…
The role of interface states and dielectric mismatch is studied in ultrathin P-doped silicon-on-insulator (SOI) films with thickness of the device layer ($H_{SOI}$) varying from 30 to 8 nm and dopant concentration ($n_{D}$) ranging from…
Phosphorus donor impurities in silicon are a promising candidate for solid-state quantum computing due to their exceptionally long coherence times and high fidelities. However, individual addressability of exchange coupled donor qubits with…
The hyperfine interaction of phosphorus donors in fully strained Si thin films grown on virtual Si$_{1-x}$Ge$_x$ substrates with $x\leq 0.3$ is determined via electrically detected magnetic resonance. For highly strained epilayers,…
Donor impurities in wide direct band gap semiconductors provide a promising platform for spin--photon quantum technologies by combining a donor spin qubit with optically addressable transitions. In ZnO, the shallow donor with the largest…
We use above-bandgap optical excitation, via a 1047 nm laser, to hyperpolarize the $^{31}$P spins in low-doped (N$_D =6\times10^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$) natural abundance silicon at 4.2 K and 6.7 T, and inductively detect the resulting NMR signal.…
We experimentally study the coupling of Group V donor spins in silicon to mechanical strain, and measure strain-induced frequency shifts which are linear in strain, in contrast to the quadratic dependence predicted by the valley…
Donors in silicon can now be positioned with an accuracy of about one lattice constant, making it possible in principle to form donor arrays for quantum computation or quantum simulation applications. However the multi-valley character of…
The fourfold degeneracy of the boron acceptor ground state in silicon, which is easily lifted by any symmetry breaking perturbation, allows for a strong inhomogeneous broadening of the boron-related electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)…
Single crystal silicon is an excellent system in which to explore dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), as it exhibits a continuum of properties from metallic to insulating as a function of doping concentration and temperature. At low doping…
We explore the effects of stress on silicon donor bound exciton ($\mathrm{D^0X}$) transitions in bulk silicon and in microfabricated silicon devices. We first study $\mathrm{D^0X}$ transitions in an isotopically purified silicon-28 bulk…
An experimental study on the nature of spin-dependent excess charge carrier transitions at the interface between (111) oriented phosphorous doped ([P] ~ 10^15 cm^3) crystalline silicon and silicon dioxide at high magnetic field (B_0 ~ 8.5…
The electronic structure of the three-particle donor bound exciton (D$^0$X) in silicon is computed using a large-scale atomic orbital tight-binding method within the Hartree approximation. The calculations yield a transition energy close to…
Donor states in Si nanodevices can be strongly modified by nearby insulating barriers and metallic gates. We report here experimental results indicating a strong reduction in the charging energy of isolated As dopants in Si FinFETs relative…
We report Stark shift measurements for 121Sb donor electron spins in silicon using pulsed electron spin resonance. Interdigitated metal gates on top of a Sb-implanted 28Si epi-layer are used to apply electric fields. Two Stark effects are…
Bismuth (209Bi) is the deepest Group V donor in silicon and possesses the most extreme characteristics such as a 9/2 nuclear spin and a 1.5 GHz hyperfine coupling. These lead to several potential advantages for a Si:Bi donor electron spin…
Excited states of a single donor in bulk silicon have previously been studied extensively based on effective mass theory. However, a proper theoretical description of the excited states of a donor cluster is still scarce. Here we study the…
