We investigate properties of charge detection and detection-induced dephasing of a charge
qubit interacting with an electron beam collider composed of a quantum point contact. We
predict that the interference of the qubit is fully restored when the two inputs are
identically biased so that all the electrons suffer two-electron collision, unlike
the case without collision. This phenomenon is related to Fermi statistics and
illustrates the peculiar nonlocality of dephasing. We also describe the detection
properties of entangled electron pairs. For singlet pairs, the sensitivity of charge
detection is enhanced which originates from the bunching behavior of electrons. This
demonstrates that control of exchange statistics of particles can help sensitive charge
detection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
