Distributing quantum information with holes in germanium

In this thesis, research is presented that explores the characteristics and possibilities of hole spin qubits defined in quantum dots in a germanium/silicon germanium heterostructure. The results of the most important experiments are concerned with distributing quantum information: either by entangling three qubits as the basis for the phase...

Spin Qubits in Silicon and Germanium

Quantum computers based on semiconductor quantum dots are proving promising contenders for large scale quantum information processing. In particular, group IV based semiconductor hosts containing an abundance of nuclear spin-zero isotopes have made considerable headway into fulfilling the requirements of a universal quantum computer. Silicon (Si...
