In this paper, we investigate different decoherence sources with a charge qubit in a semiconductor quantum dot device. We distinguish between the intrinsic qubit population leakage and extrinsic environment noise, through a crucial difference in their signatures on the dynamics of the qubit. The results demonstrated here could help to develop unified understanding of decoherence mechanism in quantum dots and allow us to design suitable protocols for control and measurement.

We study the transport properties in double quantum dots asymmetrically coupled to leads in magnetic field. We focus on the situation in which the second dot (QD2) couples with the leads with a weak hybridization function. The results shows that by tuning the energy level [Formula: see text] of QD2 one can control the conductance and its spin polarization of the system. In the absence of magnetic field [Formula: see text], with increasing [Formula: see text], the conductance shows a dip structure. This behavior of conductance results from a continuous triplet–doublet quantum phase transition. In the presence of magnetic field [Formula: see text], we obtain a perfect spin filtering with a fully-polarized conductance of up-spin or down-spin.

AbstractSpin-based quantum processors in silicon quantum dots offer high-fidelity single and two-qubit operation. Recently multi-qubit devices have been realized; however, many-qubit demonstrations remain elusive, partly due to the limited qubit-to-qubit connectivity. These problems can be overcome by using SWAP gates, which are challenging to implement in devices having large magnetic field gradients. Here we use a primitive SWAP gate to transfer spin eigenstates in 100 ns with a fidelity of $${\bar{F}}_{{\rm{SWAP}}}^{{\rm{(p)}}}=98 \%$$F¯SWAP(p)=98%. By swapping eigenstates we are able to demonstrate a technique for reading out and initializing the state of a double quantum dot without shuttling charges through the quantum dot. We then show that the SWAP gate can transfer arbitrary two-qubit product states in 300 ns with a fidelity of $${\bar{F}}_{{\rm{SWAP}}}^{{\rm{(c)}}}=84 \%$$F¯SWAP(c)=84%. This work sets the stage for many-qubit experiments in silicon quantum dots.

Thermoelectric transport through a double-quantum-dot (DQD) connected to the left and right leads is theoretically investigated in the framework of non-equilibrium Green’s function technique. We consider that the dots are also coupled to Majorana zero modes (MZMs) prepared at the two ends of a topological superconductor nanowire. It is found that the sign change of thermopower, which is promising in the detection of MZMs, can be realized by tuning several system’s parameters related to the MZMs, such as the coupling strength between the dots and the MZMs, the direct coupling between the MZMs, or even the magnetic flux penetrating through the structure. The above parameters also lead to significant enhancement of the thermopower and thermoelectric figure of merit (FOM), which indicates the conversion efficiency between heat and electrical energies. We also find that in this DQD system, both the thermopower and FOM are simultaneously enhanced by the MZMs around the electron-hole symmetric point, an ideal phenomenon in applications of thermoelectric effect. In addition, the thermoelectric effect is remarkably enhanced by the direct hybridization between the MZMs, which is very different from the case in single-dot structure.
