Optimal operation points for ultrafast, highly coherent Ge hole spin-orbit qubits

Abstract Strong spin-orbit interactions make hole quantum dots central to the quest for electrical spin qubit manipulation enabling fast, low-power, scalable quantum computation. Yet it is important to establish to what extent spin-orbit coupling exposes qubits to electrical noise, facilitating deco...
