Coherent electrical readout of defect spins in silicon carbide by photo-ionization at ambient conditions

The efficiency of quantum state readout is one of the factors that determine the performance of point defects in semiconductors in practical applications. Here the authors demonstrate photo-electrical readout for silicon vacancies in silicon carbide, providing an alternative to optical detection.
