(author), Sebastiano, F. (author)Quantum processors rely on classical electronic controllers to manipulate and read out the state of quantum bits (qubits). As the performance of the quantum processor improves, nonidealities in the classical controller can become the performance bottleneck for the whole quantum computer. To prevent such limitation, this paper presents a...journal article 2019

(author), Schouten, R.N. (author), Dobrovitski, V.V. (author), Vandersypen, L.M.K. (author), Veldhorst, M. (author)We investigate the magnetic field and temperature dependence of the single-electron spin lifetime in silicon quantum dots and find a lifetime of 2.8 ms at a temperature of 1.1 K. We develop a model based on spin-valley mixing and find that Johnson noise and two-phonon processes limit relaxation at low and high temperature, respectively. We...journal article 2018

(author), Wegscheider, W. (author), Manfra, M. J. (author), Vandersypen, L.M.K. (author)Electrostatic confinement in semiconductors provides a flexible platform for the emulation of interacting electrons in a two-dimensional lattice, including in the presence of gauge fields. This combination offers the potential to realize a wide host of quantum phases. Capacitance spectroscopy provides a technique that allows one to directly...journal article 2018

Vink, I.T. (author), Nooitgedagt, T. (author), Schouten, R.N. (author), Vandersypen, L.M.K. (author), Wegscheider, W. (author)The authors employ a cryogenic high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) amplifier to increase the bandwidth of a charge detection setup with a quantum point contact (QPC) charge sensor. The HEMT is operating at 1?K and the circuit has a bandwidth of 1?MHz. The noise contribution of the HEMT at high frequencies is only a few times higher than...journal article 2007

Vandersypen, L.M.K. (author), Elzerman, J.M. (author), Schouten, R.N. (author), Willems van Beveren, L.H. (author), Hanson, R. (author), Kouwenhoven, L.P. (author)We observe individual tunnel events of a single electron between a quantum dot and a reservoir, using a nearby quantum point contact (QPC) as a charge meter. The QPC is capacitively coupled to the dot, and the QPC conductance changes by about 1% if the number of electrons on the dot changes by one. The QPC is voltage biased and the current is...journal article 2004
