A Corbino ring geometry is utilized to analyze edge and bulk conductance of InAs/GaSb quantum well structures. We show that edge conductance exists in the trivial regime of this theoretically-predicted topological system with a temperature insensitive linear resistivity per unit length in the range of 2 k/m. A resistor network model of the device is developed to decouple the edge conductance from the bulk conductance, providing a quantitative technique to further investigate the nature of this trivial edge conductance, conclusively identified here as being of n-type.
Spin-based silicon quantum dots are
an attractive qubit technology
for quantum information processing with respect to coherence time,
control, and engineering. Here we present an exchange-only Si qubit
device platform that combines the throughput of CMOS-like wafer processing
with the versatility of direct-write lithography. The technology,
which we coin “SLEDGE”, features dot-shaped gates that
are patterned simultaneously on one topographical plane and subsequently
connected by vias to interconnect metal lines. The process design
enables nontrivial layouts as well as flexibility in gate dimensions,
material selection, and additional device features such as for rf
qubit control. We show that the SLEDGE process has reduced electrostatic
disorder with respect to traditional overlapping gate devices with
lift-off metallization, and we present spin coherent exchange oscillations
and single qubit blind randomized benchmarking data.
We report a backgated InAs/GaSb double quantum well device grown on GaSb substrate. The use of the native substrate allows for high materials quality with electron mobility in excess of 500,000 cm 2 /Vs at sheet charge density of 8x10 11 cm -2 and approaching 100,000 cm 2 /Vs near the charge neutrality point (CNP). Lattice matching between the quantum well structure and the substrate eliminates the need for a thick buffer, enabling large back gate capacitance and efficient coupling with the conduction channels in the quantum wells. As a result, quantum Hall effects are observed in both electron and hole regimes across the hybridization gap. *Corresponding authors: mbnguyen@hrl.com and MSokolich@hrl.com
