Detuning Axis Pulsed Spectroscopy of Valley-Orbital States in Si/SiGe Quantum Dots

Silicon quantum dot qubits must contend with low-lying valley excited states which are sensitive functions of the quantum well heterostructure and disorder; quantifying and maximizing the energies of these states are critical to improving device performance. We describe a spectroscopic method for probing excited states in isolated Si/SiGe double quantum dots using standard baseband pulsing techniques, easing the extraction of energy spectra in multiple-dot devices. We use this method to measure dozens of valley excited state energies spanning multiple wafers, quantum dots, and orbital states, crucial for evaluating the dependence of valley splitting on quantum well width and other epitaxial conditions. Our results suggest that narrower wells can be beneficial for improving valley splittings, but this effect can be confounded by variations in growth and fabrication conditions. These results underscore the importance of valley splitting measurements for guiding the development of Si qubits.

Decoupling edge versus bulk conductance in the trivial regime of an InAs/GaSb double quantum well using Corbino ring geometry

A Corbino ring geometry is utilized to analyze edge and bulk conductance of InAs/GaSb quantum well structures. We show that edge conductance exists in the trivial regime of this theoretically-predicted topological system with a temperature insensitive linear resistivity per unit length in the range of 2 kOhm/um. A resistor network model of the device is developed to decouple the edge conductance from the bulk conductance, providing a quantitative technique to further investigate the nature of this trivial edge conductance, conclusively identified here as being of n-type.

Gate-tunable high mobility remote-doped InSb/In_{1-x}Al_{x}Sb quantum well heterostructures

Gate-tunable high-mobility InSb/In_{1-x}Al_{x}Sb quantum wells (QWs) grown on GaAs substrates are reported. The QW two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) channel mobility in excess of 200,000 cm^{2}/Vs is measured at T=1.8K. In asymmetrically remote-doped samples with an HfO_{2} gate dielectric formed by atomic layer deposition, parallel conduction is eliminated and complete 2DEG channel depletion is reached with minimal hysteresis in gate bias response of the 2DEG electron density. The integer quantum Hall effect with Landau level filling factor down to 1 is observed. A high-transparency non-alloyed Ohmic contact to the 2DEG with contact resistance below 1Ω \cdot mm is achieved at 1.8K.

High mobility back-gated InAs/GaSb double quantum well grown on GaSb substrate

We report a backgated InAs/GaSb double quantum well device grown on GaSb substrate. The use of the native substrate allows for high materials quality with electron mobility in excess of 500,000 cm2/Vs at sheet charge density of 8x1011 cm-2 and approaching 100,000 cm2/Vs near the charge neutrality point (CNP). Lattice matching between the quantum well structure and the substrate eliminates the need for a thick buffer, enabling large back gate capacitance and efficient coupling with the conduction channels in the quantum wells. As a result, quantum Hall effects are observed in both electron and hole regimes across the hybridization gap.
