• Abstract summary: We report on the mechanisms and anisotropies that underlie qubit driving and decoherence. We operate the qubit at low magnetic field and measure a dephasing time of $T*=9.2$mu$s, while maintaining a single-qubit gate fidelity of 99.94 %. This understanding of qubit driving and decoherence mechanisms are key for the design and operation of scalable and highly coherent hole qubit arrays.

• Abstract: Spin qubits defined by valence band hole states comprise an attractive candidate for quantum information processing due to their inherent coupling to electric fields enabling fast and scalable qubit control. In particular, heavy holes in germanium have shown great promise, with recent demonstrations of fast and high-fidelity qubit operations. However, the mechanisms and anisotropies that underlie qubit driving and decoherence are still mostly unclear. Here, we report on the highly anisotropic heavy-hole $g$-tensor and its dependence on electric fields, allowing us to relate both qubit driving and decoherence to an electric modulation of the $g$-tensor. We also confirm the predicted Ising-type hyperfine interaction but show that qubit coherence is ultimately limited by $1/f$ charge noise. Finally, we operate the qubit at low magnetic field and measure a dephasing time of $T_2^*=9.2$ ${\mu}$s, while maintaining a single-qubit gate fidelity of 99.94 %, that remains well above 99 % at an operation temperature T>1 K. This understanding of qubit driving and decoherence mechanisms are key for the design and operation of scalable and highly coherent hole qubit arrays.
