Macroscopic Singlet-Triplet Qubit in Synthetic Spin-One Chain in Semiconductor Nanowires
Abstract We show here how to create macroscopic quantum states in a semiconductor device: a chain of InAs quantum dots embedded in an InP nanowire. Filling the nanowire with 4 electrons per dot creates a synthetic spin-one chain, with four-fold degenerate topological ground state protected by a Hald...
