Abstract Large-scale arrays of quantum-dot spin qubits in Si/SiGe quantum wells require large or tunable energy splittings the valley states associated with degenerate conduction band minima. Existing proposals to deterministically enhance splitting rely on sharp interfaces modifications well barriers that can be difficult grow. Here, we propose and demonstrate a new heterostructure, “Wiggle Well”, whose key feature is Ge concentration oscillations inside well. Experimentally, show placing...
A primary obstacle in scaling up quantum computing platforms based on semiconductor dots (QDs) is the full automation of initialization and control. Using ideas from machine learning (ML), pattern recognition, optimization, authors implement an autotuning protocol that needs no human intervention to navigate between QD states real time. convolutional neural network identifies $i\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}n$ $s\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}i\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}t\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}u$ measurements;...
