چکیده

We study the radio-frequency single-electron transistor (rf-SET) as a readout device for charge qubits. We measure the charge sensitivity of an rf-SET to be 6.3microe/sqrt[Hz] and evaluate the backaction of the rf-SET on a single Cooper-pair box. This allows us to compare the needed measurement time with the mixing time of the qubit imposed by the measurement. We find that the mixing time can be substantially longer than the measurement time, which would allow readout of the state of the qubit in a single shot measurement.

Inductive single-electron transistor.

We demonstrate a sensitive method of charge detection based on radio-frequency readout of the Josephson inductance of a superconducting single-electron transistor. Charge sensitivity 1.4 x 10(-4) e/square root Hz, limited by a preamplifier, is achieved in an operation mode which takes advantage of the nonlinearity of the Josephson potential. Owing to reactive readout, our setup has more than 2 ...

Charge-based quantum computing using single donors in semiconductors

Solid-state quantum computer architectures with qubits encoded using single atoms are now feasible given recent advances in atomic doping of semiconductors. Here we present a charge qubit consisting of two dopant atoms in a semiconductor crystal, one of which is singly ionised. Surface electrodes control the qubit and a radiofrequency single electron transistor provides fast readout. The calcul...

Single-shot readout with the radio-frequency single-electron transistor in the presence of charge noise

The radio-frequency single-electron transistor srf-SETd possesses key requirements necessary for reading out a solid state quantum computer. This work explores the use of the rf-SET as a single-shot readout device in the presence of 1 / f and telegraph charge noise. For a typical spectrum of 1/ f noise we find that high fidelity, single-shot measurements are possible for signals Dq .0.01e. For ...

Noise in the Single Electron Transistor and Its Back Action during Measurement G. Johansson

Single electron transistors (SETs) are very sensitive electrometers and they can be used in a range of applications. In this paper we give an introduction to the SET and present a full quantum mechanical calculation of how noise is generated in the SET over the full frequency range, including a new formula for the quantum current noise. The calculation agrees well with the shot noise result in ...

The radio-frequency single-electron transistor (RF-SET): A fast and ultrasensitive electrometer

A new type of electrometer is described that uses a single-electron transistor (SET) and that allows large operating speeds and extremely high charge sensitivity. The SET readout was accomplished by measuring the damping of a 1.7-gigahertz resonant circuit in which the device is embedded, and in some ways is the electrostatic "dual" of the well-known radio-frequency superconducting quantum inte...
