In a semiconductor spin qubit with sizable spin-orbit coupling, coherent rotations can be driven by resonant gate-voltage modulation. Recently, we have exploited this opportunity in the experimental demonstration of hole silicon device. Here investigate underlying physical mechanisms measuring full angular dependence Rabi frequency, as well and anisotropy g factor.

The ability to manipulate electron spins with voltage-dependent electric fields is key the operation of quantum spintronics devices, such as spin-based semiconductor qubits. A natural approach electrical spin control exploits spin-orbit coupling (SOC) inherently present in all materials. So far, this could not be applied electrons silicon, due their extremely weak SOC.

Abstract Semiconducting–superconducting hybrids are vital components for the realization of high‐performance nanoscale devices. In particular, semiconducting–superconducting nanowires attract widespread interest owing to possible presence non‐abelian Majorana zero modes, which quasiparticles that hold promise topological quantum computing. However, systematic search Majoranas signatures is challenging because it requires reproducible hybrid devices and reliable fabrication methods. This work...
