| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We obtained the optimized ohmic contact to Ge/Si nanowire. With such devices, we achieved quasi-ballistic transport in the nanowire and measured quantized conductance features. The helical spin state was detected as a re-entrant conductance feature residing on conductance plateaus of 2e^2/h, which is a strong experimental support of the existence of strong spin-orbit interaction. We extracted a strong spin-orbit energy of 2.1 meV and g-factor of 3.6 (Nano Lett. 2018).
We also fabricated the gate-defined quantum dots in nanowire with sub-100 nm pitch finger gates and exfoliated hBN dielectric. A microwave transmission line resonator connected to the source is utilized to for the fast readout. Moreover, the qubit energy can be separately tuned by the chemical potential difference and the tunnel coupling between the adjacent dots, thus switching on and off the coupling. The hole-photon coupling strength is evaluated to be in the magnitude of several tens of MHz. (Nano Lett. 2019)
