چکیده

We demonstrate coherent control of two nuclear spins mediated by the magnetic resonance of a hyperfine-coupled electron spin. This control is used to create a double-nuclear coherence in one of the two electron spin manifolds, starting from an initial thermal state, in direct analogy to the creation of an entangled (Bell) state from an initially pure unentangled state. We identify challenges and potential solutions to obtaining experimental gate fidelities useful for quantum information processing in this type of system.

Universal Control of Nuclear Spins Via Anisotropic Hyperfine Interactions

We show that nuclear spin subsystems can be completely controlled via microwave irradiation of resolved anisotropic hyperfine interactions with a nearby electron spin. Such indirect addressing of the nuclear spins via coupling to an electron allows us to create nuclear spin gates whose operational time is significantly faster than conventional direct addressing methods. We experimentally demons...

Coherent manipulation of nuclear spins in the breakdown regime of integer quantum Hall states

We demonstrate a new method for electrical manipulation of nuclear spins utilizing dynamic nuclear polarization induced by quantum Hall effect breakdown. Nuclear spins are polarized and detected through the hyperfine interaction between a nuclear spin system and a two-dimensional electron system located at an interface of GaAs/AlGaAs single heterostructure. Coherent oscillations between the nuc...

Nuclear Spin Phenomena in Optically Active Semiconductor Quantum Dots

The motivating background for this thesis lies in the recent development in the coherent optical control of electron spin states in semiconductor quantum dots. One possible and attractive application for these achievements is a physical implementation of a quantum computer based on spin qubits (quantum bit) in quantum dots. However, one of the obstacles in building such quantum computer is deco...

Hyperfine interactions in two-dimensional HgTe topological insulators

We study the hyperfine interaction between the nuclear spins and the electrons in a HgTe quantum well, which is the prime experimentally realized example of a two-dimensional topological insulator. The hyperfine interaction is a naturally present, internal source of broken time-reversal symmetry from the point of view of the electrons. The HgTe quantum well is described by the so-called Bernevi...

RF Instrumentation and System Design for Coherent Control of Anisotropic Hyperfine - Coupled Electron / Nuclear Spin Qubits

Coherent control is a fundamental challenge in quantum information processing (QIP). Our system of interest employs a local, isolated electron spin to coherently control nuclear spins. Coupled electron/nuclear spins are a promising candidate for QIP: nuclear spins are used for information storage and computation due to their long coherence times, while the electron is used as a spin actuator fo...
