• Abstract: We introduce a novel method that we call Single-Shot Cross-Spectroscopy (SSCS), for extracting the auto- and cross-power spectral densities of dephasing noise of a qubit pair. The method uses straightforward input, namely single-shot readouts from single-qubit Ramsey-type experiments, and is resilient against errors in state preparation and measurement. We apply it to experimental data from a semiconductor spin-qubit device and obtain noise spectra over five orders of magnitude in frequency (5 mHz--500 Hz). Compared to other techniques, SSCS enables access to noise correlations in the previously inaccessible intermediate-frequency range (1--500 Hz) for spin qubits, and can be further extended with faster readout. More broadly, the frequency range accessible with SSCS is limited only by the experiment repetition rate, and scales accordingly on other platforms.
