Probing electron trapping by current collapse in GaN/AlGaN FETs utilizing quantum transport characteristics

GaN is expected to be a key material for next-generation electronics due to its interesting properties. However, the current collapse poses a challenge to the application of GaN FETs to electronic devices. In this study, we investigate the formation of quantum dots in GaN FETs under the current collapse. By comparing the Coulomb diamond between standard measurements and those under current collapse, we find that the gate capacitance is significantly decreased by the current collapse. This suggests that the current collapse changes the distribution of trapped electrons at the device surface, which is reported in the previous study by operando X-ray spectroscopy. Also, we show external control of quantum dot formation, previously challenging in an FET structure, by using current collapse.

Microwave dependent quantum transport characteristics in GaN/AlGaN FETs

Defects in semiconductors, traditionally seen as detrimental to electronic device performance, have emerged as potential assets in quantum technologies due to their unique quantum properties. This study investigates the interaction between defects and quantum electron transport in GaN/AlGaN field-effect transistors, highlighting the observation of Fano resonances at low temperatures. We observe the resonance spectra and their dependence on gate voltage and magnetic fields. To explain the observed behavior, we construct the possible scenario as a Fano interferometer with finite width. Our findings reveal the potential of semiconductor defects to contribute to the development of quantum information processing, providing their role to key components in next-generation quantum devices.

Dynamics of quantum cellular automata electron transition in triple quantum dots

The quantum cellular automata (QCA) effect is a transition in which multiple electron move coordinately by Coulomb interactions and observed in multiple quantum dots. This effect will be useful for realizing and improving quantum cellular automata and information transfer using multiple electron transfer. In this paper, we investigate the real-time dynamics of the QCA charge transitions in a triple quantum dot by using fast charge-state readout realized by rf reflectometry. We observe real-time charge transitions and analyze the tunneling rate comparing with the first-order tunneling processes. We also measure the gate voltage dependence of the QCA transition and show that it can be controlled by the voltage.

Visual explanations of machine learning model estimating charge states in quantum dots

Charge state recognition in quantum dot devices is important in the preparation of quantum bits for quantum information processing. Toward auto-tuning of larger-scale quantum devices, automatic charge state recognition by machine learning has been demonstrated. For further development of this technology, an understanding of the operation of the machine learning model, which is usually a black box, will be useful. In this study, we analyze the explainability of the machine learning model estimating charge states in quantum dots by gradient-weighted class activation mapping, which identified class-discriminative regions for the predictions. The model predicts the state based on the change transition lines, indicating that human-like recognition is realized. We also demonstrate improvements of the model by utilizing feedback from the mapping results. Due to the simplicity of our simulation and pre-processing methods, our approach offers scalability without significant additional simulation costs, demonstrating its suitability for future quantum dot system expansions.

Radio-frequency reflectometry in bilayer graphene devices utilizing micro graphite back-gates

Bilayer graphene is an attractive material that realizes high-quality two-dimensional electron gas with a controllable bandgap. By utilizing the bandgap, electrical gate tuning of the carrier is possible and formation of nanostructures such as quantum dots have been reported. To probe the dynamics of the electronics states and realize applications for quantum bit devices, RF-reflectometry which enables high-speed electric measurements is important. Here we demonstrate RF-reflectometry in bilayer graphene devices. We utilize a micro graphite back-gate and an undoped Si substrate to reduce the parasitic capacitance which degrades the RF-reflectometry. We measure the resonance properties of a tank circuit which contains the bilayer graphene device. We form RF-reflectmetory setup and compared the result with the DC measurement, and confirmed their consistency. We also measure Coulomb diamonds of quantum dots possibly formed by bubbles and confirm that RF-reflectometry of quantum dots can be performed. This technique enables high-speed measurements of bilayer graphene quantum dots and contributes to the research of bilayer graphene-based quantum devices by fast readout of the states.
