We present a detailed analysis of the fundamental noise sources in superconducting transition-edge sensors (TESs), ac voltage biased at MHz frequencies and treated as superconducting weak links. We have studied the noise in the resistive…
We present a new spin-exchange relaxation-free vector magnetometer with suppressed 1/f probe noise, achieved by applying a small DC bias field and a comb of magnetic DC $\pi$ pulses along the pump direction. This results in a synchronous…
Spin dependent transport in a ferromagnet/superconductor/ferromagnet single electron transistor is studied theoretically with spin accumulation, spin relaxation, gap suppression, and charging effects taken into account. A strong dependence…
We have analyzed numerically the response and noise-limited charge sensitivity of a radio-frequency single-electron transistor (RF-SET) in a non-superconducting state using the orthodox theory. In particular, we have studied the performance…
Titanium silicide islands have been formed by the ultrahigh vacuum deposition of thin films of titanium (< 2 nm) on atomically clean Si(100) substrates followed by annealing to ~800 degrees C. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and…
We have studied the physics of transition-edge sensor (TES) devices with an insulating AlOx layer on top of the device to allow implementation of more complex detector geometries. By comparing devices with and without the insulating film,…
Interplay of cotunneling and single-electron tunneling in a thermally isolated single-electron transistor (SET) leads to peculiar overheating effects. In particular, there is an interesting crossover interval where the competition between…
Measurements of the low frequency electrical noise in the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As reveal an enhanced integrated noise at low temperature. For moderate localization, we find a 1/f normalized power spectrum density over the…
We investigate the tunneling shot noise limits on the sensitivity of a micromechanical displacement detector based on a metal junction, radio-frequency single-electron transistor (rf-SET). In contrast with the charge sensitivity of the…
The ab-initio theory of low-field electronic transport properties such as carrier mobility in semiconductors is well-established. However, an equivalent treatment of electronic fluctuations about a non-equilibrium steady state, which are…
A theoretical analysis of the charge sensitivity of the RF-SET is presented. We use the ``orthodox'' approach and consider the case when the carrier frequency is much less than $I/e$ where $I$ is the typical current through RF-SET. The…
We propose a new method of direct detection of spin accumulation, which overcomes problems of previous measurement schemes. A spin dependent current in a single-electron transistor with ferromagnetic electrodes leads to spin accumulation on…
Fluctuations of electric fields can change the position of a gate-defined quantum dot in a semiconductor heterostructure. In the presence of magnetic field gradient, these stochastic shifts of electron's wavefunction lead to fluctuations of…
Fundamental physical properties limiting the performance of spin field effect transistors are compared to those of ordinary (charge-based) field effect transistors. Instead of raising and lowering a barrier to current flow these spin…
One of the unique features of Dirac Fermions is pseudo-diffusive transport by evanescent modes at low Fermi energies when the disorder is low. At higher Fermi energies i.e. carrier densities, the electrical transport is diffusive in nature…
Low-frequency charge noise induced by fluctuating electrostatic disorder is a major limitation for semiconductor hole spin qubits. Here, we analyze the quasistatic response of a hole spin qubit to individual two-level fluctuators (TLFs). We…
We have developed a novel system consisting of a superconducting single-electron transistor (S-SET) coupled to a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), for which the dissipation can be tuned in the immediate vicinity of the S-SET. Within…
We measure telegraph noise of current fluctuations in an electrostatically defined quantum dot in bilayer graphene by real-time detection of single electron tunneling with a capacitively coupled neighboring quantum dot. Suppression of the…
We present experimental and numerical results from a real-time detection of time-correlated single-electron tunneling oscillations in a one-dimensional series array of small tunnel junctions. The electrons tunnel with a frequency f=I/e,…
Correlated noise across multi-qubit architectures is known to be highly detrimental to the operation of error correcting codes and the long-term feasibility of quantum processors. The recent discovery of spatially dependent correlated noise…
