Large deviations related to Dynkin--Lamperti arcsine laws for last visit times of Markov processes

We establish large deviation estimates related to the Dynkin--Lamperti arcsine laws for subordinators whose Laplace exponents are either regularly varying or comparable to regularly varying functions. By applying these results to inverse local times, we derive large deviation estimates for the last visit times to the starting point of various Hunt processes satisfying suitable on-diagonal resolvent density estimates, such as one-dimensional generalized diffusion processes, one-dimensional Lévy processes, and Brownian motion and its subordinate process on the Sierpiński gasket.

Interplay of Electric Dipole Spin Resonance and Multilevel Landau-Zener Interference in p-Type Silicon Quantum Dots

In this work, we examine microwave responses of the Pauli spin blockade (PSB) leakage current through a p-type silicon double quantum dot. We observe more than the expected two resonance lines with the main resonance line exhibits both positive and negative peaks as a function of the magnetic field, corresponding to enhancement and suppression of the PSB leakage current, respectively. We attribute the observed spectra to the interplay between two spin rotation mechanisms: spin-orbit-mediated electric dipole spin resonance (EDSR) and multilevel Landau-Zener (MLLZ) interference, both of which are present in electrically driven devices with strong spin-orbit coupling (and enhanced in the vicinity of orbital level crossings). A numerical simulation taking into account both mechanisms show agreement with the experimental results. While these unconventional spectral behaviours can be readily suppressed away from the orbital level crossing or in devices with weak spin-orbit coupling, our study showcases the potential complexity of spin-rotating mechanisms for electrically driven spin qubits.

Pauli spin blockade at room temperature in double-quantum-dot tunneling through individual deep dopants in silicon

Pauli spin blockade (PSB) is a spin-dependent charge transport process that typically appears in double quantum dot (QD) devices and is employed in fundamental research on single spins in nanostructures to read out semiconductor qubits. The operating temperature of PSB is limited by that of the QDs and remains below 10 K, limiting wide application development. Herein, we confirm that a single deep dopant in the channel of a silicon field effect transistor functions as a room-temperature QD; consequently, transport through two different deep dopants exhibits PSB up to room temperature. The characteristic magnetoconductance provides a means to identify PSB and enables the PSB device to function as a magnetic sensor with a sensitivity below geomagnetic field. Lifting in PSB caused by magnetic resonance (50 K) and Rabi oscillations (10 K) are also observed. Further development of this unique system may lead to room-temperature quantum technologies based on silicon technology.

Nearly homogeneous and isotropic turbulence generated by the interaction of supersonic jets

This study reports the development and characterization of a multiple-supersonic-jet wind tunnel designed to investigate the decay of nearly homogeneous and isotropic turbulence in a compressible regime. The interaction of 36 supersonic jets generates turbulence that decays in the streamwise direction. The velocity field is measured with particle image velocimetry by seeding tracer particles with ethanol condensation. Various velocity statistics are evaluated to diagnose decaying turbulence generated by the supersonic jet interaction. The flow is initially inhomogeneous and anisotropic and possesses intermittent large-scale velocity fluctuations. The flow evolves into a statistically homogeneous and isotropic state as the mean velocity profile becomes uniform. In the nearly homogeneous and isotropic region, the ratio of root-mean-squared velocity fluctuations in the streamwise and vertical directions is about 1.08, the longitudinal integral scales are also similar in these directions, and the large-scale intermittency becomes insignificant. The turbulent kinetic energy per unit mass decays according to a power law with an exponent of about 2, larger than those reported for incompressible grid turbulence. The energy spectra in the inertial subrange agree well with other turbulent flows when normalized by the dissipation rate and kinematic viscosity. The non-dimensional dissipation rate is within a range of 0.51--0.87, which is also consistent with incompressible grid turbulence. These results demonstrate that the multiple-supersonic-jet wind tunnel is helpful in the investigation of decaying homogeneous isotropic turbulence whose generation process is strongly influenced by fluid compressibility.

Resonant tunneling and quantum interference of a two-spin system in silicon tunnel FETs

We investigated the resonant tunneling of a two-spin system through the double quantum dots in Al-N-implanted silicon tunnel FETs (TFETs) by electrical-transport measurements and Landau-Zener-Stückelberg-Majorana interferometry with and without magnetic fields. Our experimental results revealed the coexistence of spin-conserving and spin-flip tunneling channels in the two-spin system in non-zero magnetic fields. Additionally, we obtained the spin-conserving/spin-flip tunneling rates of the two-spin system through the double quantum dots in the TFET. These findings will improve our understanding of the two-spin system in silicon TFET qubits and may facilitate the coherent control of quantum states through all-electric manipulation.

Introduction of deep level impurities, S, Se, and Zn, into Si wafers for high-temperature operation of a Si qubit

To realize high-temperature operation of Si qubits, deep impurity levels with large confinement energy, which are hardly thermally excited, have been introduced into Si wafers. Group II impurity Zn and group VI impurities S and Se, which are known to form deep levels, were introduced into the Si substrates by ion implantation. These samples were analyzed for concentration-depth profiles, energy level depths, and absence of defects. To introduce deep impurities into thin channels such as 50-nm-thick Si, we found impurity introduction conditions so that the concentration depth profiles have maximum value at less than 50 nm from the Si surface. Then, the formation of the deep levels and absence of defects were experimentally examined. By using the conditions to introduce deep impurities into Si wafer obtained from the experiments, single-electron transport at room temperature, high-temperature operation of qubit, and room-temperature quantum magnetic sensors are promising.

4.2 K Sensitivity-Tunable Radio Frequency Reflectometry of a Physically Defined P-channel Silicon Quantum Dot

We demonstrate the measurement of p-channel silicon-on-insulator quantum dots at liquid helium temperatures by using a radio frequency (rf) reflectometry circuit comprising of two independently tunable GaAs varactors. This arrangement allows observing Coulomb diamonds at 4.2\,K under nearly best matching condition and optimal signal-to-noise ratio. We also discuss the rf leakage induced by the presence of the large top gate in MOS nanostructures and its consequence on the efficiency of rf-reflectometry. These results open the way to fast and sensitive readout in multi-gate architectures, including multi-qubit platforms.

$L^p$-Kato class measures and their relations with Sobolev embedding theorems for Dirichlet spaces

In this paper, we discuss relationships between the continuous embeddings of Dirichlet spaces $(\mathcal{F}, \mathcal{E}_1)$ into Lebesgue spaces and the integrability of the associated resolvent kernel $r_α(x, y)$. For a positive measure $μ$, we consider the following two properties; the first one is that the Dirichlet space $(\mathcal{F}, \mathcal{E}_1)$ is continuously embedded into $L^{2p}(E;μ)$ (which we write as (Sob)$_p$), and the second one is that the family of 1-order resolvent kernels $\{r_1(x, y)\}_{x\in E}$ is uniformly $p$-th integrable in $y$ with respect to the measure $μ$ (which we write as (Dyn)$_p$). Under some assumptions, for a measure $μ$ satisfying (Dyn)$_1$, we prove (Dyn)$_{p'}$ implies (Sob)$_p$ for $1\leq p \leq p'<\infty$, and prove (Sob)$_{p'}$ implies (Dyn)$_p$ for $1\leq p < p'<\infty$. To prove these results we introduce $L^p$-Kato class, an $L^p$-version of the set of Kato class measures, and discuss its properties. We also give variants of such relations corresponding to the Gagliardo-Nirenberg type interpolation inequalities. As an application, we discuss the continuity of intersection measures in time.

RF Reflectometry for Readout of Charge Transition in a Physically Defined PMOS Silicon Quantum Dot

We have embedded a physically defined p-channel silicon MOS quantum dot (QD) device into an impedance transformer RC circuit. To decrease the parasitic capacitance and surpass the cutoff frequency of the device which emerges in MOS devices that have a top gate and act as RC low-pass filter, we fabricate a new device to reduce the device's top gate area from 400 $\mbox{$μ$m}^2$ to 0.09 $\mbox{$μ$m}^2$. Having a smaller top gate eliminates the cutoff frequency problem preventing the RF signal from reaching QD. We show that we have fabricated a single QD properly, which is essential for RF single-electron transistor technique. We also analyze and improve the impedance matching condition and show that it is possible to perform readout of charge transition at 4.2 K by RF reflectometry, which will get us to fast readout of charge and spin states.

$L^p$-Kato class measures for symmetric Markov processes under heat kernel estimates

In this paper, we establish the coincidence of two classes of $L^p$-Kato class measures in the framework of symmetric Markov processes admitting upper and lower estimates of heat kernel under mild conditions. One class of $L^p$-Kato class measures is defined by the $p$-th power of positive order resolvent kernel, another is defined in terms of the $p$-th power of Green kernel depending on some exponents related to the heat kernel estimates. We also prove that $q$-th integrable functions on balls with radius $1$ having uniformity of its norm with respect to centers are of $L^p$-Kato class if $q$ is greater than a constant related to $p$ and the constants appeared in the upper and lower estimates of the heat kernel. These are complete extensions of some results by Aizenman-Simon and the recent results by the second named author in the framework of Brownian motions on Euclidean space. We further give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Radon measure with Ahlfors regularity to belong to $L^p$-Kato class. Our results can be applicable to many examples, for instance, symmetric (relativistic) stable processes, jump processes on $d$-sets, Brownian motions on Riemannian manifolds, diffusions on fractals and so on.

$L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class for symmetric Markov processes

In this paper, we introduce the notion of $L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class in the framework of symmetric Markov processes. The class of $L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class is defined by the $p$-th power of resolvent kernels. We first prove that under the $L^p$-Green tightness of the measure $μ$, the embedding of extended Dirichlet space into $L^{2p}(E;μ)$ is compact under the absolute continuity condition for transient Markov processes, which is an extension of recent seminal work by Takeda. Secondly, we prove the coincidence between two classes of $L^p$-Green-tightness, one is originally introduced by Zhao, and another one is invented by Chen. Finally, we prove that our class of $L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class coincides with the class of $L^p$-Green tight measures of Kato class in terms of Green kernel under the global heat kernel estimates. We apply our results to $d$-dimensional Brownian motion androtationally symmetric relativistic $α$-stable processes on $\mathbb{R}^d$.

Large deviation principle for the intersection measure of Brownian motions on unbounded domains

Consider the intersection measure $\ell^{\mathrm{IS}}_t$ of $p$ independent Brownian motions on $\mathbb{R}^d$. In this article, we prove the large deviation principle for the normalized intersection measure $t^{-p}\ell^{\mathrm{IS}}_t$ as $t\rightarrow \infty$, before exiting a (possibly unbounded) domain $D\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ with smooth boundary. This is an extension of [W. König and C. Mukherjee: Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, 66(2):263--306, 2013] which deals with the case $D$ is bounded. Our essential contribution is to prove the so-called super-exponential estimate for the intersection measure of killed Brownian motions on such $D$ by an application of the Chapman-Kolmogorov relation.

High-temperature operation of a silicon qubit

This study alleviates the low operating temperature constraint of Si qubits. A qubit is a key element for quantum sensors, memories, and computers. Electron spin in Si is a promising qubit, as it allows both long coherence times and potential compatibility with current silicon technology. Si qubits have been implemented using gate-defined quantum dots or shallow impurities. However, operation of Si qubits has been restricted to milli-Kelvin temperatures, thus limiting the application of the quantum technology. In this study, we addressed a single deep impurity, having strong electron confinement of up to 0.3 eV, using single-electron tunnelling transport. We also achieved qubit operation at 5-10 K through a spin-blockade effect based on the tunnelling transport via two impurities. The deep impurity was implemented by tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) instead of conventional FETs. With further improvement in fabrication and controllability, this work presents the possibility of operating silicon spin qubits at elevated temperatures.

Large deviations for intersection measures of some Markov processes

Consider an intersection measure $\ell_t ^{\mathrm{IS}}$ of $p$ independent (possibly different) $m$-symmetric Hunt processes up to time $t$ in a metric measure space $E$ with a Radon measure $m$. We derive a Donsker-Varadhan type large deviation principle for the normalized intersection measure $t^{-p}\ell_t ^{\mathrm{IS}}$ on the set of finite measures on $E$ as $t \rightarrow \infty$, under the condition that $t$ is smaller than life times of all processes. This extends earlier work by W. König and C. Mukherjee (2013), in which the large deviation principle was established for the intersection measure of $p$ independent $N$-dimensional Brownian motions before exiting some bounded open set $D \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. We also obtain the asymptotic behaviour of logarithmic moment generating function, which is related to the results of X. Chen and J. Rosen (2005) on the intersection measure of independent Brownian motions or stable processes. Our results rely on assumptions about the heat kernels and the 1-order resolvents of the processes, hence include rich examples. For example, the assumptions hold for $p\in \mathbb{Z}$ with $2\leq p < p_*$ when the processes enjoy (sub-)Gaussian type or jump type heat kernel estimates, where $p_*$ is determined by the Hausdorff dimension of $E$ and the so-called walk dimensions of the processes.

Fiber mode scrambler for the Subaru infrared Doppler instrument (IRD)

We report the results of fiber mode scrambler experiments for the Infra-Red Doppler instrument (IRD) on the Subaru 8.2-m telescope. IRD is a fiber-fed, high precision radial velocity (RV) instrument to search for exoplanets around nearby M dwarfs at near-infrared wavelengths. It is a high-resolution spectrograph with an Echelle grating. The expected RV measurement precision is 1 m s-1 with a state of the art laser frequency comb for the wavelength calibration. In IRD observations, one of the most significant instrumental noise is a change of intensity distribution of multi-mode fiber exit, which degrades RV measurement precision. To stabilize the intensity distribution of fiber exit an introduction of fiber mode scrambler is mandatory. Several kinds of mode scramblers have been suggested in previous research, though it is necessary to determine the most appropriate mode scrambler system for IRD. Thus, we conducted systematic measurements of performance for a variety of mode scramblers, both static and dynamic. We tested various length multi-mode fibers, an octagonal fiber, a double fiber scrambler, and two kinds of dynamic scramblers, and their combinations. We report the performances of these mode scramblers and propose candidate mode scrambler systems for IRD.

Spatiotemporal correlations of earthquakes in the continuum limit of the one-dimensional Burridge-Knopoff model

Spatiotemporal correlations of the one-dimensional spring-block (Burridge-Knopoff) model of earthquakes, either with or without the viscosity term, are studied by means of numerical computer simulations. The continuum limit of the model is examined by systematically investigating the model properties with varying the block-size parameter a toward a\to 0. The Kelvin viscosity term is introduced so that the model dynamics possesses a sensible continuum limit. In the presence of the viscosity term, many of the properties of the original discrete BK model are kept qualitatively unchanged even in the continuum limit, although the size of minimum earthquake gets smaller as a gets smaller. One notable exception is the existence/non-existence of the doughnut-like quiescence prior to the mainshock. Although large events of the original discrete BK model accompany seismic acceleration together with a doughnut-like quiescence just before the mainshock, the spatial range of the doughnut-like quiescence becomes narrower as a gets smaller, and in the continuum limit, the doughnut-like quiescence might vanish altogether. The doughnut-like quiescence observed in the discrete BK model is then a phenomenon closely related to the short-length cut-off scale of the model.

Simulation study of the two-dimensional Burridge-Knopoff model of earthquakes

Spatiotemporal correlations of the two-dimensional spring-block (Burridge-Knopoff) model of earthquakes are extensively studied by means of numerical computer simulations. The model is found to exhibit either ``subcritical'' or ``supercritical'' behavior, depending on the values of the model parameters. Transition between these regimes is either continuous or discontinuous. Seismic events in the ``subcritical'' regime and those in the ``supercritical'' regime at larger magnitudes exhibit universal scaling properties. In the ``supercritical'' regime, eminent spatiotemporal correlations, {\it e.g.}, remarkable growth of seismic activity preceding the mainshock, arise in earthquake occurrence, whereas such spatiotemporal correlations are significantly suppressed in the ``subcritical'' regime. Seismic activity is generically suppressed just before the mainshock in a close vicinity of the epicenter of the upcoming event while it remains to be active in the surroundings (the Mogi doughnut). It is also observed that, before and after the mainshock, the apparent $B$-value of the magnitude distribution decreases or increases in the ``supercritical'' or ``subcritical'' regimes, respectively. Such distinct precursory phenomena may open a way to the prediction of the upcoming large event.

Simulation study of earthquakes based on the two-dimensional Burridge-Knopoff model with the long-range interaction

Spatiotemporal correlations of the two-dimensional spring-block (Burridge-Knopoff) models of earthquakes with the long-range inter-block interactions are extensively studied by means of numerical computer simulations. The long-range interaction derived from an elasticd theory, which takes account of the effect of the elastic body adjacent to the fault plane, falls off with distance r as 1/r^3. Comparison is made with the properties of the corresponding short-range models studied earlier. Seismic spatiotemporal correlations of the long-range models generally tend to be weaker than those of the short-range models. The magnitude distribution exhibits a ``near-critical'' behavior, i.e., a power-law-like behavior close to the Gutenberg-Richter law, for a wide parameter range with its B-value, B\simeq 0.55, insensitive to the model parameters, in sharp contrast to that of the 2D short-range model and those of the 1D short-range and long-range models where such a ``near-critical'' behavior is realized only by fine-tuning the model parameters. In contrast to the short-range case, the mean stress-drop at a seismic event of the long-range model is nearly independent of its magnitude, consistently with the observation. Large events often accompany foreshocks together with a doughnut-like quiescence as their precursors, while they hardly accompany aftershocks with almost negligible seismic correlations observed after the mainshock.
