Anisotropy reduction and tunability of hole-spin qubit g-factor in strained parabolic Ge/SiGe quantum wells

Hole-spin qubits in planar Ge/SiGe heterostructures have attracted significant attention in recent years owing to their favorable electrical characteristics and prolonged coherence times. However, the strong spin-orbit interaction also makes them susceptible to charge noise and inhomogeneous strain. This is further exacerbated by the highly anisotropic g-factor of the planar design. Although there are some known strategies to suppress charge noise, one approach is to engineer an isotropic g-factor. In this work we analyze how qubit confinement profile affects the g-factor of hole-spin qubits. We show that decreasing the characteristic in-plane qubit confinement length reduces the g-factor anisotropy. We perform analytical and numerical analysis to compare two types of quantum wells: square wells and parabolic wells. We show that square wells have limited tunability, while parabolic wells offer broader tunability, making them more promising for qubit engineering.

Formation of dark excitons in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides by a vortex beam: optical selection rules

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides host tightly-bound excitons, which dominate their optoelectronic response even at room temperatures. Light beams are often used to study these materials with the polarization - often termed as the spin angular momentum of the light - providing the mechanism for exciting excitonic states. Light beams, however, can also carry an orbital angular momentum by creating helical structures of their phase front. In this work, we consider a Laguerre-Gaussian beam possessing an orbital angular momentum in addition to the spin angular momentum to create excitons in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides. We derive optical selection rules that govern the allowed transitions to various exciton series using symmetry arguments. Our symmetry considerations show that we can create dark excitons using these high-order optical beams opening up new avenues for creating long-lived dark excitons with the potential of exploiting them in quantum information processing and storage.
