Abstract Scalable quantum technologies such as computers will require very large numbers of devices to be characterised and tuned. As the number on chip increases, this task becomes ever more time-consuming, intractable a scale without efficient automation. We present measurements dot device performed by machine learning algorithm in real time. The selects most informative perform next combining information theory with probabilistic deep-generative model that can generate full-resolution...
Abstract Deep reinforcement learning is an emerging machine-learning approach that can teach a computer to learn from their actions and rewards similar the way humans experience. It offers many advantages in automating decision processes navigate large parameter spaces. This paper proposes efficient measurement of quantum devices based on deep learning. We focus double dot devices, demonstrating fully automatic identification specific transport features called bias triangles. Measurements...
Device variability is a bottleneck for the scalability of semiconductor quantum devices. Increasing device control comes at cost large parameter space that has to be explored in order find optimal operating conditions. We demonstrate statistical tuning algorithm navigates this entire space, using just few modelling assumptions, search specific electron transport features. focused on gate-defined dot devices, demonstrating fully automated two different devices double regimes an up...
The discrepancies between reality and simulation impede the optimization scalability of solid-state quantum devices. Disorder induced by unpredictable distribution material defects is one major contributions to gap. We bridge this gap using physics-aware machine learning, in particular, an approach combining a physical model, deep Gaussian random field, Bayesian inference. This enables us infer disorder potential nanoscale electronic device from electron-transport data. inference validated...

Pauli spin blockade (PSB) can be employed as a great resource for qubit initialisation and readout even at elevated temperatures but it difficult to identify.
