The ability to apply GHz frequencies to control the quantum state of a single $P$ atom is an essential requirement for the fast gate pulsing needed for qubit control in donor based silicon quantum computation. Here we demonstrate this with nanosecond accuracy in an all epitaxial single atom transistor by applying excitation signals at frequencies up to $approx$ 13 GHz to heavily phosphorous doped silicon leads. These measurements allow the differentiation between the excited states of the single atom and the density of states in the one dimensional leads. Our pulse spectroscopy experiments confirm the presence of an excited state at an energy $approx$ 9 meV consistent with the first excited state of a single $P$ donor in silicon. The relaxation rate of this first excited state to ground is estimated to be larger than 2.5 GHz, consistent with theoretical predictions. These results represent a systematic investigation of how an atomically precise single atom transistor device behaves under rf excitations.

Low dimensional nano-systems are promising candidates for manipulating, controlling and capturing photons with large sensitivities and low-noise. If quantum engineered to tailor the energy of the localized electrons across the desired frequency range
, they can allow devising efficient quantum sensors across any frequency domain. Here, we exploit the rich few-electrons physics to develop millimeter-wave nanodetectors employing as sensing element an InAs/InAs0.3P0.7 quantum-dot nanowire, embedded in a single electron transistor. Once irradiated with light the deeply localized quantum element exhibits an extra electromotive force driven by the photothermoelectric effect, which is exploited to efficiently sense radiation at 0.6 THz with a noise equivalent power < 8 pWHz-1/2 and almost zero dark current. The achieved results open intriguing perspectives for quantum key distributions, quantum communications and quantum cryptography at terahertz frequencies.
We propose an approach for probing Majorana bound states (MBSs) in a nanowire via counting statistics of a nearby charge detector in the form of a single-electron transistor (SET). We consider the impacts on the counting statistics by both the local
coupling between the detector and an adjacent MBS at one end of a nanowire and the nonlocal coupling to the MBS at the other end. We show that the Fano factor and the skewness of the SET current are minimized for a symmetric SET configuration in the absence of the MBSs or when coupled to a fermionic state. However, the minimum points of operation are shifted appreciably in the presence of the MBSs to asymmetric SET configurations with a higher tunnel rate at the drain than at the source. This feature persists even when varying the nonlocal coupling and the pairing energy between the two MBSs. We expect that these MBS-induced shifts can be measured experimentally with available technologies and can serve as important signatures of the MBSs.
Semiconductor nano-devices have been scaled to the level that transport can be dominated by a single dopant atom. In the strong coupling case a Kondo effect is observed when one electron is bound to the atom. Here, we report on the spin as well as or
bital Kondo ground state. We experimentally as well than theoretically show how we can tune a symmetry transition from a SU(4) ground state, a many body state that forms a spin as well as orbital singlet by virtual exchange with the leads, to a pure SU(2) orbital ground state, as a function of magnetic field. The small size and the s-like orbital symmetry of the ground state of the dopant, make it a model system in which the magnetic field only couples to the spin degree of freedom and allows for observation of this SU(4) to SU(2) transition.
We have measured quantum interference between two single microwave photons trapped in a superconducting resonator, whose frequencies are initially about 6 GHz apart. We accomplish this by use of a parametric frequency conversion process that mixes th
e mode currents of two cavity harmonics through a superconducting quantum interference device, and demonstrate that a two-photon entanglement operation can be performed with high fidelity.
We have measured the microwave conductance of mechanically exfoliated graphene at frequencies up to 8.5 GHz. The conductance at 4.2 K exhibits quantum oscillations, and is independent of the frequency.
