    Coherent control of the photoinduced transition in a strongly correlated material
    (College Park, MD : APS, 2022) Molinero, Eduardo B.; Silva, Rui E. F.
    The use of intense tailored light fields is the perfect tool to achieve ultrafast control of electronic properties in quantum materials. Among them, Mott insulators are materials in which strong electron-electron interactions drive the material into an insulating phase. When shining a Mott insulator with a strong laser pulse, the electric field may induce the creation of doublon-hole pairs, triggering a photoinduced transition into a metallic state. In this paper, we take advantage of the threshold character of this photoinduced transition and we propose a setup that consists of a midinfrared laser pulse and a train of short pulses separated by a half period of the midinfrared with alternating phases. By varying the time delay between the two pulses and the internal carrier envelope phase of the short pulses, we achieve control of the phase transition, which leaves its fingerprint at its high harmonic spectrum.

    Coherent control of electron spin qubits in silicon using a global field
    (London : Nature Publ. Group, 2022) Vahapoglu, E.; Slack-Smith, J.P.; Leon, R.C.C.; Lim, W.H.; Hudson, F.E.; Day, T.; Cifuentes, J.D.; Tanttu, T.; Yang, C. H.; Saraiva, A.; Abrosimov, N.V.; Pohl, H.J.; Thewalt, M.L.W.; Laucht, A.; Dzurak, A.S.; Pla, J.J.
    Silicon spin qubits promise to leverage the extraordinary progress in silicon nanoelectronic device fabrication over the past half century to deliver large-scale quantum processors. Despite the scalability advantage of using silicon technology, realising a quantum computer with the millions of qubits required to run some of the most demanding quantum algorithms poses several outstanding challenges, including how to control many qubits simultaneously. Recently, compact 3D microwave dielectric resonators were proposed as a way to deliver the magnetic fields for spin qubit control across an entire quantum chip using only a single microwave source. Although spin resonance of individual electrons in the globally applied microwave field was demonstrated, the spins were controlled incoherently. Here we report coherent Rabi oscillations of single electron spin qubits in a planar SiMOS quantum dot device using a global magnetic field generated off-chip. The observation of coherent qubit control driven by a dielectric resonator establishes a credible pathway to achieving large-scale control in a spin-based quantum computer.
