We propose an all optical spin initialization and readout concept for single self assembled quantum dots and demonstrate its feasibility. Our approach is based on a gateable single dot photodiode structure that can be switched between…
We present a new way of continuously reading-out the state of a single electronic spin. Our detection scheme is based on an exchange interaction between the electronic spin and a nearby read-out quantum dot. The coupling between the two…
State readout is a key requirement for a quantum computer. For semiconductor-based qubit devices it is usually accomplished using a separate mesoscopic electrometer. Here we demonstrate a simple detection scheme in which a radio-frequency…
Quantum sensors based on individual spins provide unprecedented access to local magnetic fields in condensed matter, chemistry, and biology, with solid-state defect spins emerging as the leading platform. However, their molecular-sensing…
Spin-orbit effects, inherent to electrons confined in quantum dots at a silicon heterointerface, provide a means to control electron spin qubits without the added complexity of on-chip, nanofabricated micromagnets or nearby coplanar…
We propose a scheme to perform single-shot quantum non-demolition (QND) readout of the spin of an electron trapped in a semiconductor quantum dot (QD). Our proposal relies on the interaction of the QD electron spin with optically excited,…
In the quest for physically realizable quantum information science (QIS) primitives, self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) serve a dual role as sources of photonic (flying) qubits and traps for electron spin; the prototypical stationary qubit.…
Utilizing the Pauli-blocking mechanism we show that shining circular polarized light on a singly-charged quantum dot induces spin dependent fluorescence. Employing the quantum-jump technique we demonstrate that this resonance luminescence,…

We study the dynamics of a single electron spin in a double quantum dot (DQD) and its readout via a quantum point contact (QPC). We model the system microscopically and derive rate equations for the reduced electron density matrix of the…
We implement silicon quantum dot devices with two layers of gate electrodes using a self-alignment technique, which allows for ultra-small gate lengths and intrinsically perfect layer-to-layer alignment. In a double quantum dot system, we…
We describe a paradigm for measuring a single electron spin in a solid. This is a fundamental problem in condensed matter physics. The technique can be used to read a spin qubit relatively non-invasively in either a spintronic quantum gate…
We propose to use the spin-orbit interaction as a means to control electron spins in quantum dots, enabling both single qubit and two qubit operations. Very fast single qubit operations may be achieved by temporarily displacing the…
Spin-orbit coupling is relatively weak for electrons in bulk silicon, but enhanced interactions are reported in nanostructures such as the quantum dots used for spin qubits. These interactions have been attributed to various dissimilar…
In the design of quantum computer architectures that take advantage of the long coherence times of dopant nuclear and electron spins in the solid-state, single-spin detection for readout remains a crucial unsolved problem. Schemes based on…

Crossings between spin-singlet and spin-triplet lowest states are analyzed within the model of a two-electron quantum dot in a perpendicular magnetic field. The explicit expressions in terms of the magnetic field, the magnetic quantum…
Measurement of quantum systems inevitably involves disturbance in various forms. Within the limits imposed by quantum mechanics, however, one can design an "ideal" projective measurement that does not introduce a back action on the measured…
