Enhanced zero-phonon line emission from an ensemble of W centers in circular and bowtie Bragg grating cavities

November 19, 2024
Author(s)
Vijin Kizhake Veetil, Junyeob Song, Pradeep Namboodiri, Nikki Ebadollahi, Ashish Chanana, Aaron Katzenmeyer, Christian Pederson, Joshua Pomeroy, Jeff Chiles, Jeff Shainline, Kartik Srinivasan, Marcelo Davanco, Matthew Pelton
Color centers in silicon have recently gained considerable attention as a single-photon source [1,2] and as a spin qubit-photon interface [3] for quantum information applications. However, one of the major bottlenecks is their low overall brightness due to

Optical Studies of Silicon Color Centers and CC-LEDs for Consideration as Telecom Quantum Light Sources

October 29, 2024

Nikki Ebadollahi, Pradeep Namboodiri, Vijin Kizhake Veetil, Marcelo Davanco, Kartik Srinivasan, Aaron Katzenmeyer, Matthew Pelton, Joshua Pomeroy
We synthesized and studied color centers on silicon-on-insulator wafers with photoluminescence mapping and spectroscopy, and fabricated silicon W- and G- color center LEDs towards electrically-pumped single photon sources.

Design, modeling, and fabrication of high frequency Oersted lines for electron spin manipulation in silicon based quantum devices

October 25, 2024
Author(s)
Pradeep Namboodiri, Mark-yves Gaunin, Alessandro Restelli, Ranjit Kashid, Xiqiao Wang, Fan Fei, Brian Courts, FNU Utsav, Vijith Kamalon Pulikodan, Jonathan Wyrick, Richard M. Silver
Coherent manipulation of electron spins is one of the central problems of silicon-based quantum computing efforts. Electron spin resonance (ESR) lines, or Oersted lines, allow high frequency RF pulses to induce an electromagnetic field that drives Rabi

DC to GHz measurements of a near-ideal 2D material: P+ monolayers

March 8, 2024
Author(s)
Neil M. Zimmerman, Antonio Levy, Pradeep Namboodiri, Joshua M. Pomeroy, Xiqiao Wang, Joseph Fox, Richard M. Silver
P+ monolayers in Si are of great scientific and technological interest, both intrinsically as a material in the "ideal vacuum" of crystalline Si, and because they are showing great promise as qubits of electron and nuclear spin. The GHz complex

Multi-scale alignment to buried atom-scale devices using Kelvin probe force microscopy

February 24, 2024
Author(s)
Pradeep Namboodiri, Jonathan Wyrick, Gheorghe Stan, Xiqiao Wang, Fan Fei, Ranjit Kashid, Scott Schmucker, Richard Kasica, Bryan Barnes, Michael Stewart, Richard M. Silver
Fabrication of quantum devices by atomic scale patterning with a Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) has led to the development of single/few atom transistors, few-donor/quantum dot devices for spin manipulation and arrayed few-donor devices for analog

Experimental realization of an extended Fermi-Hubbard model using a 2D lattice of dopant-based quantum dots

November 11, 2022
Author(s)
Richard M. Silver, Jonathan Wyrick, Xiqiao Wang, Ranjit Kashid, Garnett W. Bryant, Albert Rigosi, Pradeep Namboodiri, Ehsan Khatami
The Hubbard model is one of the primary models for understanding the essential many-body physics in condensed matter systems such as Mott insulators and cuprate high-Tc superconductors. Due to the long-range Coulomb interactions, accessible low

Enhanced Atomic Precision Fabrication by Adsorption of Phosphine into Engineered Dangling Bonds on H-Si Using STM and DFT
