First demonstration of coherent manipulation of a singlet-triplet qubit in a GaAs double quantum dot. Showed coherent exchange oscillations between singlet and triplet states with nanosecond gate times, establishing the singlet-triplet encoding as a viable qubit.

Key Results

  • Coherent singlet-triplet oscillations with T₂* ≈ 10 ns (GaAs, limited by nuclear spins)
  • Exchange gate time: ~200 ps
  • Readout via spin-to-charge conversion through Pauli spin blockade
  • First two-electron qubit with all-electrical control
