Coupling MOS quantum dot and phosphorous donor qubit systems

Technical Digest - International Electron Devices Meeting, IEDM

Rudolph, Martin R.; Harvey-Collard, P.; Jock, R.; Jacobson, Noah T.; Wendt, J.R.; Pluym, Tammy P.; Dominguez, Jason J.; Ten Eyck, Gregory A.; Manginell, Ronald P.; Lilly, M.P.; Carroll, Malcolm

Si-MOS based QD qubits are attractive due to their similarity to the current semiconductor industry. We introduce a highly tunable MOS foundry compatible qubit design that couples an electrostatic quantum dot (QD) with an implanted donor. We show for the first time coherent two-axis control of a two-electron spin logical qubit that evolves under the QD-donor exchange interaction and the hyperfine interaction with the donor nucleus. The two interactions are tuned electrically with surface gate voltages to provide control of both qubit axes. Qubit decoherence is influenced by charge noise, which is of similar strength as epitaxial systems like GaAs and Si/SiGe.

High-mobility transparent conducting oxides for compact epsilon-near-zero silicon integrated optical modulators

Wood, Michael G.; Campione, Salvatore; Serkland, Darwin K.; Parameswaran, Sivasubramanian P.; Ihlefeld, Jon; Luk, Ting S.; Wendt, J.R.; Geib, Kent M.; Keeler, Gordon A.

We study the role of carrier mobility in transparent conducting oxides integrated into epsilon-near-zero modulators. High-mobility materials including CdO enable sub-micron length electroabsorption modulators through >4dB/μm extinction ratios.

Broken Symmetry Dielectric Resonators for High Quality Factor Fano Metasurfaces

ACS Photonics

We present a new approach to dielectric metasurface design that relies on a single resonator per unit cell and produces robust, high quality factor Fano resonances. Our approach utilizes symmetry breaking of highly symmetric resonator geometries, such as cubes, to induce couplings between the otherwise orthogonal resonator modes. In particular, we design perturbations that couple "bright" dipole modes to "dark" dipole modes whose radiative decay is suppressed by local field effects in the array. Our approach is widely scalable from the near-infrared to radio frequencies. We first unravel the Fano resonance behavior through numerical simulations of a germanium resonator-based metasurface that achieves a quality factor of ∼1300 at ∼10.8 μm. Then, we present two experimental demonstrations operating in the near-infrared (∼1 μm): a silicon-based implementation that achieves a quality factor of ∼350; and a gallium arsenide-based structure that achieves a quality factor of ∼600, the highest near-infrared quality factor experimentally demonstrated to date with this kind of metasurface. Importantly, large electromagnetic field enhancements appear within the resonators at the Fano resonant frequencies. We envision that combining high quality factor, high field enhancement resonances with nonlinear and active/gain materials such as gallium arsenide will lead to new classes of active optical devices.

Enhanced infrared detectors using resonant structures combined with thin type-II superlattice absorbers

Applied Physics Letters

Goldflam, Michael G.; Kadlec, Emil A.; Olson, B.V.; Klem, John F.; Hawkins, Samuel D.; Parameswaran, Sivasubramanian P.; Coon, W.T.; Keeler, Gordon A.; Fortune, Torben R.; Tauke-Pedretti, Anna; Wendt, J.R.; Shaner, Eric A.; Davids, Paul D.; Kim, Jin K.; Peters, D.W.

We examined the spectral responsivity of a 1.77 μm thick type-II superlattice based long-wave infrared detector in combination with metallic nanoantennas. Coupling between the Fabry-Pérot cavity formed by the semiconductor layer and the resonant nanoantennas on its surface enables spectral selectivity, while also increasing peak quantum efficiency to over 50%. Electromagnetic simulations reveal that this high responsivity is a direct result of field-enhancement in the absorber layer, enabling significant absorption in spite of the absorber's subwavelength thickness. Notably, thinning of the absorbing material could ultimately yield lower photodetector noise through a reduction in dark current while improving photocarrier collection efficiency. The temperature- and incident-angle-independent spectral response observed in these devices allows for operation over a wide range of temperatures and optical systems. This detector paradigm demonstrates potential benefits to device performance with applications throughout the infrared.

Tailoring dielectric resonator geometries for directional scattering, Huygens' metasurfaces, and high quality-factor Fano resonances

2016 URSI International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory, EMTS 2016

Campione, Salvatore; Basilio, Lorena I.; Warne, Larry K.; Langston, William L.; Luk, Ting S.; Wendt, J.R.; Liu, Sheng L.; Brener, Igal B.; Sinclair, Michael B.

Metamaterial dielectric resonators represent a promising path toward low-loss metamaterials at optical frequencies. In this paper we utilize perturbations of high symmetry resonator geometries, such as cubes, either to overlap the electric and magnetic dipole resonances, thereby enabling directional scattering and Huygens' metasurfaces, or to induce couplings between the otherwise orthogonal resonator modes to achieve high-quality factor Fano resonances. Our results are fully scalable across any frequency bands where high-permittivity dielectric materials are available, including microwave, THz, and infrared frequencies.

Fabrication of quantum dots in undoped Si/Si0.8Ge0.2 heterostructures using a single metal-gate layer

Applied Physics Letters

Lu, Tzu-Ming L.; Gamble, John K.; Muller, Richard P.; Nielsen, Erik N.; Bethke, D.; Ten Eyck, Gregory A.; Pluym, Tammy P.; Wendt, J.R.; Dominguez, Jason J.; Lilly, M.P.; Carroll, Malcolm; Wanke, M.C.

Enhancement-mode Si/SiGe electron quantum dots have been pursued extensively by many groups for their potential in quantum computing. Most of the reported dot designs utilize multiple metal-gate layers and use Si/SiGe heterostructures with Ge concentration close to 30%. Here, we report the fabrication and low-temperature characterization of quantum dots in the Si/Si0.8Ge0.2 heterostructures using only one metal-gate layer. We find that the threshold voltage of a channel narrower than 1 μm increases as the width decreases. The higher threshold can be attributed to the combination of quantum confinement and disorder. We also find that the lower Ge ratio used here leads to a narrower operational gate bias range. The higher threshold combined with the limited gate bias range constrains the device design of lithographic quantum dots. We incorporate such considerations in our device design and demonstrate a quantum dot that can be tuned from a single dot to a double dot. The device uses only a single metal-gate layer, greatly simplifying device design and fabrication.
