Ge浓度振荡对Si/SiGe异质结自旋轨道增强的影响

Spin-orbit enhancement in Si/SiGe heterostructures with oscillating Ge concentration

Benjamin D. Woods, M. A. Eriksson, Robert Joynt, Mark Friesen

摘要:

我们发现,Ge浓度振荡的量子阱区域内的Si/SiGe异质结构可以显着提高低能量导带谷的自旋轨道耦合。具体地说,我们发现,在量子阱区中的平均Ge浓度为$\bar{n}_{\text{Ge}} = 5\%$的$λ= 1.57~\text{nm}$附近的Ge振荡波长,在所有物理相关的电场强度下,诱导Dresselhaus自旋轨道耦合,这比在没有Ge浓度振荡的常规Si/SiGe异质结构中发现的大一个数量级。这种增强是由Ge浓度振荡产生的波函数卫星峰在动量空间中距离每个谷$2 π/λ$,然后通过Dresselhaus自旋轨道耦合耦合到相对的谷。我们的研究结果表明,增强的自旋轨道耦合可以使快速自旋操纵硅量子点内使用电偶极自旋共振在没有微磁体。事实上,我们的计算产生拉比频率$Ω_{\text{Rabi}}/B > 500~\text{MHz/T}$附近的最佳Ge振荡波长$λ= 1.57~\text{nm}$。

英文摘要:

We show that Ge concentration oscillations within the quantum well region of a Si/SiGe heterostructure can significantly enhance the spin-orbit coupling of the low-energy conduction-band valleys. Specifically, we find that for Ge oscillation wavelengths near $λ= 1.57~\text{nm}$ with an average Ge concentration of $\bar{n}_{\text{Ge}} = 5\%$ in the quantum well region, a Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling is induced, at all physically relevant electric field strengths, which is over an order of magnitude larger than what is found in conventional Si/SiGe heterostructures without Ge concentration oscillations. This enhancement is caused by the Ge concentration oscillations producing wave-function satellite peaks a distance $2 π/λ$ away in momentum space from each valley, which then couple to the opposite valley through Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. Our results indicate that the enhanced spin-orbit coupling can enable fast spin manipulation within Si quantum dots using electric dipole spin resonance in the absence of micromagnets. Indeed, our calculations yield a Rabi frequency $Ω_{\text{Rabi}}/B > 500~\text{MHz/T}$ near the optimal Ge oscillation wavelength $λ= 1.57~\text{nm}$.
