A cryogenic quantum dot thermometer is calibrated and operated using only a single non-galvanic gate connection. The thermometer is probed with radio-frequency reflectometry and calibrated by fitting a physical model to the phase of the reflected radio-frequency signal taken at temperatures across a small range. Thermometry of the source and drain reservoirs of the dot is then performed by fitting the calibrated physical model to new phase data. The thermometer can operate at the transition between thermally broadened and lifetime broadened regimes, and outside the temperatures used in calibration. Electron thermometry was performed at temperatures between $3.0,mathrm{K}$ and $1.0,mathrm{K}$, in both a $1,mathrm{K}$ cryostat and a dilution refrigerator. The experimental setup allows fast electron temperature readout with a sensitivity of $4.0pm0.3 , mathrm{mK}/sqrt{mathrm{Hz}}$, at Kelvin temperatures. The non-galvanic calibration process gives a readout of physical parameters, such as the quantum dot lever arm. The demodulator used for reflectometry readout is readily available and very affordable.

We present a thermometry scheme to extract the temperature of a 2DEG by monitoring the charge occupation of a weakly tunnel-coupled thermometer quantum dot using a quantum point contact detector. Electronic temperatures between 97 mK and 307 mK are measured by this method with an accuracy of up to 3 mK, and agree with those obtained by measuring transport through a quantum dot. The thermometer does not pass a current through the 2DEG, and can be incorporated as an add-on to measure the temperature simultaneously with another operating device. Further, the tuning is independent of temperature.
The four-level exciton/biexciton system of a single semiconductor quantum dot acts as a two qubit register. We experimentally demonstrate an exciton-biexciton Rabi rotation conditional on the initial exciton spin in a single InGaAs/GaAs dot. This forms the basis of an optically gated two-qubit controlled-rotation (CROT) quantum logic operation where an arbitrary exciton spin is selected as the target qubit using the polarization of the control laser.
We report the experimental realization of a non-galvanic, primary thermometer capable of measuring the electron temperature of a two-dimensional electron gas with negligible thermal load. Such a thermometer consists of a quantum dot whose temperature-dependent, single-electron transitions are detected by means of a quantum-point-contact electrometer. Its operating principle is demonstrated for a wide range of electron temperatures from 40 to 800 mK. This noninvasive thermometry can find application in experiments addressing the thermal properties of micrometer-scale mesoscopic electron systems, where heating or cooling electrons requires relatively low thermal budgets.
The advanced nanoscale integration available in silicon complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology provides a key motivation for its use in spin-based quantum computing applications. Initial demonstrations of quantum dot formation and spin blockade in CMOS foundry-compatible devices are encouraging, but results are yet to match the control of individual electrons demonstrated in university-fabricated multi-gate designs. We show here that the charge state of quantum dots formed in a CMOS nanowire device can be sensed by using floating gates to electrostatically couple it to a remote single electron transistor (SET) formed in an adjacent nanowire. By biasing the nanowire and gates of the remote SET with respect to the nanowire hosting the quantum dots, we controllably form ancillary quantum dots under the floating gates, thus enabling the demonstration of independent control over charge transitions in a quadruple (2x2) quantum dot array. This device overcomes the limitations associated with measurements based on tunnelling transport through the dots and permits the sensing of all charge transitions, down to the last electron in each dot. We use effective mass theory to investigate the necessary optimization of the device parameters in order to achieve the tunnel rates required for spin-based quantum computation.
Triple quantum dots (TQDs) are promising semiconductor spin qubits because of their all-electrical control via fast, tunable exchange interactions and immunity to global magnetic fluctuations. These qubits can experience strong transverse interaction with photons in the resonant exchange (RX) regime, when exchange is simultaneously active on both qubit axes. However, most theoretical work has been based on phenomenological Fermi-Hubbard models, which may not fully capture the complexity of the qubit spin-charge states in this regime. Here we investigate exchange in Si/SiGe and GaAs TQDs using full configuration interaction (FCI) calculations which better describe practical device operation. We show that high exchange operation in general, and the RX regime in particular, can differ significantly from simple models, presenting new challenges and opportunities for spin-photon coupling. We highlight the impact of device electrostatics and effective mass on exchange and identify a new operating point (XRX) where strong spin-photon coupling is most likely to occur in Si/SiGe TQDs. Based on our numerical results, we analyze the feasibility of a remote entanglement cavity iSWAP protocol and discuss design pathways for improving fidelity. Our analysis provides insight into the requirements for TQD spin-photon transduction and demonstrates more generally the necessity of accurate modeling of exchange in spin qubits.
