Spin-mechanical hybrid systems have been widely used in quantum information processing. However, the spin-mechanical interaction is generally weak, making it a critical challenge to enhance the spin-mechanical interaction into the strong…

Coherence times of spin qubits in solid-state platforms are often limited by the presence of a spin bath. While some properties of these typically dark bath spins can be indirectly characterized via the central qubit, it is important to…
