Logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits

In summary, while phase rotations have been successfully implemented in single-dot excitonic qubits using electric fields, there is currently no evidence of the CNOT and Hadamard gates being implemented in this type of qubit. Most research has focused on double-dot excitonic qubits and it appears that excitons are not receiving as much attention in the world of quantum computing. However, there is ongoing research in this area and we may see progress in the near future.

I am searching for physical realizations of universal logic operations (phase rotation, CNOT, Hadamard) in single-dot excitionic qubits. Phase rotations are easy to implement with sinusoidal electric fields but my literature search for CNOT and Hadamard gates runs dry. I can find them in spin state qubits or excitonic double-dot qubits. It seems like excitons are the readheaded step-child in the world of quantum computing theses days. Have these logic gates ever been implemented in this particular type of qubit?

Unfortunately, it appears that the CNOT and Hadamard gates have not yet been implemented in single-dot excitonic qubits. While there have been some attempts to implement these logic gates in spin states, most of the research to date has focused on double-dot excitonic qubits. As such, there is currently no evidence that these gates have been implemented in single-dot excitonic qubits. However, this is an active area of research and there may be progress in the near future.
 

1. What are logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits?

Logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits are fundamental building blocks of quantum circuits used for performing logical operations on quantum bits (qubits) encoded in excitonic states of single quantum dots. They are essential for quantum computation and communication.

2. How do logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits work?

Logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits work by manipulating the quantum states of excitons, which are bound electron-hole pairs, in single quantum dots. This is achieved through the application of external electric fields, optical excitations, or spin interactions.

3. What are the advantages of using excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits for logic gates?

Excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits have several advantages, including long coherence times, high fidelity operations, and scalability. They also have the potential for integration with existing semiconductor technology, making them a promising candidate for practical quantum computing.

4. What are the challenges in implementing logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits?

One of the main challenges in implementing logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits is controlling the exciton states with high precision and stability. This requires precise control of the external parameters and minimizing the effects of environmental noise on the qubits.

5. How are logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits being used in current research?

Currently, logic gates in excitonic single-quantum-dot qubits are being used in various research areas, including quantum information processing, quantum simulation, and quantum error correction. They are also being studied for potential applications in secure communication, metrology, and sensing.
