Coherent transfer of light polarization to electron spins in a semiconductor

We demonstrate that the superposition of light polarization states is coherently transferred to electron spins in a semiconductor quantum well. By using time-resolved Kerr rotation we observe the initial phase of Larmor precession of electron spins whose coherence is transferred from light. To break the electron-hole spin entanglement, we utilized the big discrepancy between the transverse g-factors of electrons and light holes. The result encourages us to make a quantum media converter between flying photon qubits and stationary electron spin qubits in semiconductors.

Effect of exchange interaction on fidelity of quantum state transfer from a photon qubit to an electron-spin qubit

We analyzed the fidelity of the quantum state transfer (QST) from a photon-polarization qubit to an electron-spin-polarization qubit in a semiconductor quantum dot, with special attention to the exchange interaction between the electron and the simultaneously created hole. In order to realize a high-fidelity QST we had to separate the electron and hole as soon as possible, since the electron-hole exchange interaction modifies the orientation of the electron spin. Thus, we propose a double-dot structure to separate the electron and hole quickly, and show that the fidelity of the QST can reach as high as 0.996 if the resonant tunneling condition is satisfied.

Decoherence of localized spins interacting via RKKY interaction

We theoretically study decoherence of two localized spins interacting via the RKKY interaction in one-, two-, and three-dimensional electron gas. We derive the kinetic equation for the reduced density matrix of the localized spins and show that energy relaxation caused by singlet-triplet transition is suppressed when the RKKY interaction is ferromagnetic. We also estimate the decoherence time of the system consisting of two quantum dots embedded in a two dimensional electron gas.

Dephasing of a qubit coupled with a point-contact detector

The dephasing of a qubit coupled with a point-contact detector is theoretically studied. We calculate the time evolution of the reduced density matrix of qubit by using the perturbation expansion. We show that the dephasing rate is proportional to the temperature at zero bias-voltage, while it is proportional to the bias-voltage when the bias-voltage is large. We also evaluate the dephasing rate by using the real time renormalization group method and show that the higher order processes of the particle-hole excitation enhances dephasing of qubit.
