Impact of disorder on the distribution of gate coupling strengths in a spin qubit device
Abstract
A scalable spin-based quantum processor requires a suitable semiconductor heterostructure and a gate design, with multiple alternatives being investigated. Characterizing such devices experimentally is a demanding task, with the full development cycle taking at least months. While numerical simulations are more time-efficient, their predictive power is limited due to unavoidable disorder and device-to-device variation. We develop a spin-qubit device simulation for determining the distribution of the coupling strengths between the electrostatic gate potentials and the effective device Hamiltonian in presence of disorder. By comparing our simulation results with the experimental data, we demonstrate that the coupling of the gate voltages to the dot chemical potential and the interdot tunnel coupling match up to disorder-induced variance. To demonstrate the flexibility of our approach, we also analyze an alternative non-planar geometry inspired by FinFET devices.
