Qubits based on quantum dots have excellent prospects for scalable quantum technology due to their inherent compatibility with standard semiconductor manufacturing. While early on it was recognized that holes may offer a multitude of favourable properties for fast and scalable quantum control, research thus far has remained almost exclusively restricted to the simpler electron system. However, recent developments with holes have led to separate demonstrations of single-shot readout and fast quantum logic, albeit only in the multi-hole regime. Here, we establish a single-hole spin qubit in germanium and demonstrate the integration of single-shot readout and quantum control. Moreover, we make use of Pauli spin blockade, allowing to arbitrarily set the qubit resonance frequency, while providing large readout windows. We deplete a planar germanium double quantum dot to the last hole, confirmed by radio-frequency reflectrometry charge sensing, and achieve single-shot spin readout. To demonstrate the integration of the readout and qubit operation, we show Rabi driving on both qubits and find remarkable electric control over their resonance frequencies. Finally, we analyse the spin relaxation time, which we find to exceed one millisecond, setting the benchmark for hole-based spin qubits. The ability to coherently manipulate a single hole spin underpins the quality of strained germanium and defines an excellent starting point for the construction of novel quantum hardware.
Nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers, optically-active atomic defects in diamond, have attracted tremendous interest for quantum sensing, network, and computing applications due to their excellent quantum coherence and remarkable versatility in a real, ambi
A quantum two-level system with periodically modulated energy splitting could provide a minimal universal quantum heat machine. We present the experimental realization and the theoretical description of such a two-level system as an impurity electron
Magnetic fluctuations caused by the nuclear spins of a host crystal are often the leading source of decoherence for many types of solid-state spin qubit. In group-IV materials, the spin-bearing nuclei are sufficiently rare that it is possible to iden
The quantum coherence and gate fidelity of electron spin qubits in semiconductors is often limited by noise arising from coupling to a bath of nuclear spins. Isotopic enrichment of spin-zero nuclei such as $^{28}$Si has led to spectacular improvement
We present measurements of the Berry Phase in a single solid-state spin qubit associated with the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond. Our results demonstrate the remarkable degree of coherent control achievable in the presence of a highly complex sol
