Spin-polarized transport of photo-electrons in bulk, p-type GaAs is investigated in the Pauli blockade regime. In contrast to usual spin diffusion processes in which the spin polarization decreases with distance traveled due to spin relaxation, images of the polarized photo-luminescence reveal a spin-filter effect in which the spin polarization increases during transport over the first 2 microns from 26 % to 38 %. This is shown to be a direct consequence of the Pauli Principle and the associated quantum degeneracy pressure which results in a spin-dependent increase in the minority carrier diffusion constants and mobilities. The central role played by the quantum degeneracy pressure is confirmed via the observation of a spin-dependent increase in the photo-electron volume and a spin-charge coupling description of this is presented.

By means of time-resolved optical orientation under strong optical pumping, the k-dependence of the electron spin-flip time (t_sf) in undoped GaAs is experimentally determined. t_sf monotonically decreases by more than one order of magnitude when the
electron kinetic energy varies from 2 to 30 meV. At the high excitation densities and low temperatures of the reported experiments the main spin-flip mechanism of the conduction band electrons is the Bir-Aronov-Pikus. By means of Monte-Carlo simulations we evidence that phase-space filling effects result in the blocking of the spin flip, yielding an increase of t_sf with excitation density. These effects obtain values of t_sf up to 30 ns at k=0, the longest reported spin-relaxation time in undoped GaAs in the absence of a magnetic field.
We report the dispersive readout of the spin state of a double quantum dot formed at the corner states of a silicon nanowire field-effect transistor. Two face-to-face top-gate electrodes allow us to independently tune the charge occupation of the qua
ntum dot system down to the few-electron limit. We measure the charge stability of the double quantum dot in DC transport as well as dispersively via in-situ gate-based radio frequency reflectometry, where one top-gate electrode is connected to a resonator. The latter removes the need for external charge sensors in quantum computing architectures and provides a compact way to readout the dispersive shift caused by changes in the quantum capacitance during interdot charge transitions. Here, we observe Pauli spin-blockade in the high-frequency response of the circuit at finite magnetic fields between singlet and triplet states. The blockade is lifted at higher magnetic fields when intra-dot triplet states become the ground state configuration. A lineshape analysis of the dispersive phase shift reveals furthermore an intradot valley-orbit splitting $Delta_{vo}$ of 145 $mu$eV. Our results open up the possibility to operate compact CMOS technology as a singlet-triplet qubit and make split-gate silicon nanowire architectures an ideal candidate for the study of spin dynamics.
We demonstrate double quantum dots fabricated in undoped Si/SiGe heterostructures relying on a double top-gated design. Charge sensing shows that we can reliably deplete these devices to zero charge occupancy. Measurements and simulations confirm tha
t the energetics are determined by the gate-induced electrostatic potentials. Pauli spin blockade has been observed via transport through the double dot in the two electron configuration, a critical step in performing coherent spin manipulations in Si.
Pauli spin blockade (PSB) is a significant physical effect in double quantum dot (DQD) systems. In this paper, we start from the fundamental quantum model of the DQD with the electron-electron interaction being considered, and then systematically stu
dy the PSB effect in DQD by using a recently developed non-perturbative method, the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) approach. The physical picture of the PSB is elucidated explicitly and the gate voltage manipulation is described minutely, which are both qualitatively consistent with the experimental measurements. When dotdot exchange interaction is involved, the PSB effect may be lifted by the strong antiferromagnetic exchange coupling.
Pauli blockade mechanisms -- whereby carrier transport through quantum dots (QDs) is blocked due to selection rules even when energetically allowed -- are of both fundamental and technological interest, as a direct manifestation of the Pauli exclusio
n principle and as a key mechanism for manipulating and reading out spin qubits. Pauli spin blockade is well established for systems such as GaAs QDs, where the two-electron spin-singlet ground state is separated from the three triplet states higher in energy. However, Pauli blockade physics remains largely unexplored for systems in which the Hilbert space is expanded due to additional degrees of freedom, such as the valley quantum numbers in carbon-based materials or silicon. Here we report experiments on coupled graphene double QDs in which the spin and valley states can be precisely controlled. We demonstrate that gate and magnetic-field tuning allows switching between a spin-triplet--valley-singlet ground state with charge occupancy (2,0), where valley-blockade is observed, and a spin-singlet--valley-triplet ground state, where spin blockade is shown. These results demonstrate how the complex two-particle Hilbert space of graphene quantum dots can be unravelled experimentally, with implications for future spin and valley qubits.
