We report the realization of a bonded-bridge on-chip superconducting coil and its use in impedance-matching a highly ohmic quantum dot (QD) to a $rm{3~GHz}$ measurement setup. The coil, modeled as a lumped-element $LC$ resonator, is more compact and has a wider bandwidth than resonators based on coplanar transmission lines (e.g. $lambda/4$ impedance transformers and stub tuners) at potentially better signal-to-noise ratios. In particular for measurements of radiation emitted by the device, such as shot noise, the 50$times$ larger bandwidth reduces the time to acquire the spectral density. The resonance frequency, close to 3.25 GHz, is three times higher than that of the one previously reported wire-bonded coil. As a proof of principle, we fabricated an $LC$ circuit that achieves impedance-matching to a $rm{sim 15~kOmega}$ load and validate it with a load defined by a carbon nanotube QD of which we measure the shot noise in the Coulomb blockade regime.

We present microwave frequency measurements of the dynamic admittance of a quantum dot tunnel coupled to a two-dimensional electron gas. The measurements are made via a high-quality 6.75 GHz on-chip resonator capacitively coupled to the dot. The reso nator frequency is found to shift both down and up close to conductance resonance of the dot corresponding to a change of sign of the reactance of the system from capacitive to inductive. The observations are consistent with a scattering matrix model. The sign of the reactance depends on the detuning of the dot from conductance resonance and on the magnitude of the tunnel rate to the lead with respect to the resonator frequency. Inductive response is observed on a conductance resonance, when tunnel coupling and temperature are sufficiently small compared to the resonator frequency.

The demand for a fast high-frequency read-out of high impedance devices, such as quantum dots, necessitates impedance matching. Here we use a resonant impedance matching circuit (a stub tuner) realized by on-chip superconducting transmission lines to measure the electronic shot noise of a carbon nanotube quantum dot at a frequency close to 3 GHz in an efficient way. As compared to wide-band detection without impedance matching, the signal to noise ratio can be enhanced by as much as a factor of 800 for a device with an impedance of 100 k$Omega$. The advantage of the stub resonator concept is the ease with which the response of the circuit can be predicted, designed and fabricated. We further demonstrate that all relevant matching circuit parameters can reliably be deduced from power reflectance measurements and then used to predict the power transmission function from the device through the circuit. The shot noise of the carbon nanotube quantum dot in the Coulomb blockade regime shows an oscillating suppression below the Schottky value of $2eI$, as well an enhancement in specific regions.
Wave mixing is an archetypical phenomenon in bosonic systems. In optomechanics, the bi-directional conversion between electromagnetic waves or photons at optical frequencies and elastic waves or phonons at radio frequencies is building on precisely t his fundamental principle. Surface acoustic waves provide a versatile interconnect on a chip and, thus, enable the optomechanical control of remote systems. Here, we report on the coherent nonlinear three-wave mixing between the coherent fields of two radio frequency surface acoustic waves and optical laser photons via the dipole transition of a single quantum dot exciton. In the resolved sideband regime, we demonstrate fundamental acoustic analogues of sum and difference frequency generation between the two SAWs and employ phase matching to deterministically enhance or suppress individual sidebands. This bi-directional transfer between the acoustic and optical domains is described by theory which fully takes into account direct and virtual multi-phonon processes. Finally, we show that the precision of the wave mixing is limited by the frequency accuracy of modern radio frequency electronics.
Electron spins in Si are an attractive platform for quantum computation, backed with their scalability and fast, high-fidelity quantum logic gates. Despite the importance of two-dimensional integration with efficient connectivity between qubits for m edium- to large-scale quantum computation, however, a practical device design that guarantees qubit addressability is yet to be seen. Here, we propose a practical 3 x 3 quantum dot device design and a larger-scale design as a longer-term target. The design goal is to realize qubit connectivity to the four nearest neighbors while ensuring addressability. We show that a 3 x 3 quantum dot array can execute four-qubit Grovers algorithm more efficiently than the one-dimensional counterpart. To scale up the two-dimensional array beyond 3 x 3, we propose a novel structure with ferromagnetic gate electrodes. Our results showcase the possibility of medium-sized quantum processors in Si with fast quantum logic gates and long coherence times.
The optical selection rules in epitaxial quantum dots are strongly influenced by the orientation of their natural quantization axis, which is usually parallel to the growth direction. This configuration is well suited for vertically emitting devices, but not for planar photonic circuits because of the poorly controlled orientation of the transition dipoles in the growth plane. Here we show that the quantization axis of gallium arsenide dots can be flipped into the growth plane via moderate in plane uniaxial stress. By using piezoelectric strain actuators featuring strain-amplification we study the evolution of the selection rules and excitonic fine-structure in a regime, in which quantum confinement can be regarded as a perturbation compared to strain in determining the symmetry properties of the system. The experimental and computational results suggest that uniaxial stress, may be the right tool to obtain quantum light sources with ideally oriented transition dipoles and enhanced oscillator strengths for integrated quantum photonics.
