Abstract summary: Silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor based quantum dots present a promising pathway for realizing practical quantum computers. Hartree-Fock theory is an imperative tool for the electronic structure modelling of multi-electron quantum dots. We present a Hartree-Fock-based method that accounts for these complexities for the modelling of silicon quantum dots.

Abstract: Silicon quantum computing has the potential to revolutionize technology with capabilities to solve real-life problems that are computationally complex or even intractable for modern computers [1] by offering sufficient high quality qubits to perform complex error-corrected calculations. Silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor based quantum dots present a promising pathway for realizing practical quantum computers. To improve certain qubit properties, it is a common strategy to incorporate multiple electrons in the same dot in order to form qubits in higher confined orbital states. Theoretical modelling is an essential part of understanding the quantum behaviour of these electrons, providing a basis for validating the physical working of device models as well as providing insights into experimental data. Hartree-Fock theory is an imperative tool for the electronic structure modelling of multi-electron quantum dots due to its ability to simulate a large number of electrons with manageable computation load. However, an efficient calculation of the self-consistent field becomes hard because dot formations in silicon are characterized by strong electron-electron interactions and conduction band valleys, besides the relatively high comparative effective mass, which add to create a behaviour dominated by repulsion between electrons rather than a well established shell structure. In this paper, we present a Hartree-Fock-based method that accounts for these complexities for the modelling of silicon quantum dots. With this method, we first establish the significance of including electron-electron interactions and valley degree of freedom and their implications. We then explore a simple case of anisotropic dots and observe the impact of anisotropy on dot formations.

Quantum state preparation and readout with modulated electrons [0.0]
We study the capabilities of modulated electron wavefunctions for the preparation and readout of the quantum state of the quantum emitters (QEs) they interact with. First, we consider periodic electron combs, which do not produce QE-electron entanglement, preserving the purity of the QE while inducing Rabi-like dynamics in it. We extend our findings to realistic, non-ideally modulated electron wavepackets, showing that the phenomenology persists.

A Cooper-pair beam splitter as a feasible source of entangled electrons [0.0]
We investigate the generation of an entangled electron pair emerging from a system composed of two quantum dots attached to a superconductor Cooper pair beam splitter. We take into account three processes: Crossed Andreev Reflection, cotuneling, and Coulomb interaction. Several entanglement quantifiers, including quantum mutual information, negativity, and concurrence, are employed to validate our findings.

Coulomb interaction-driven entanglement of electrons on helium [0.0]
We theoretically investigate the generation of emphmotional entanglement between two electrons via their unscreened Coulomb interaction. We compute the motional energy spectra of the electrons, as well as their entanglement, by diagonalizing the model Hamiltonian with respect to a single-particle Hartree product basis. In particular, the theoretical tools developed here can be used for fine tuning and optimization of control parameters in future experiments with electrons trapped above the surface of superfluid helium or solid neon.

We explore the applicability of quantum-data learning to practical problems in high-energy physics. We make use of ansatz based on quantum convolutional neural networks and numerically show that it is capable of recognizing quantum phases of ground states. The observation of non-trivial learning properties demonstrated in these benchmarks will motivate further exploration of the quantum-data learning architecture in high-energy physics.
