Abstract This Technical Review collects values of selected performance characteristics of
semiconductor spin qubits defined in electrically controlled nanostructures. The …

The efficiency of the future devices for quantum information processing is limited mostly by
the finite decoherence rates of the individual qubits and quantum gates. Recently …

Silicon, the main constituent of microprocessor chips, is emerging as a promising material
for the realization of future quantum processors. Leveraging its well-established …

Experimental and theoretical progress toward quantum computation with spins in quantum
dots (QDs) is reviewed, with particular focus on QDs formed in GaAs heterostructures, on …

Motion of electrons can influence their spins through a fundamental effect called spin–orbit
interaction. This interaction provides a way to control spins electrically and thus lies at the …

Manipulation of single spins is essential for spin-based quantum information processing.
Electrical control instead of magnetic control is particularly appealing for this purpose …

This article reviews the current status of spin dynamics in semiconductors which has
achieved much progress in the recent years due to the fast growing field of semiconductor …

Phase coherence is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics. Understanding the loss
of coherence is paramount for future quantum information processing. We studied the …

Quantum-dot spin qubits characteristically use oscillating magnetic or electric fields, or quasi-
static Zeeman field gradients, to realize full qubit control. For the case of three confined …

We theoretically study the interaction of a heavy hole with nuclear spins in a quasi-two-
dimensional III–V semiconductor quantum dot and the resulting dephasing of heavy-hole …
