There is rapidly expanding interest in exploiting the spin of valence-band holes rather than
conduction-band electrons for spin qubit semiconductor circuits composed of coupled …

Hybrid superconductor–semiconductor structures attract increasing attention owing to a
variety of potential applications in quantum computing devices. They can serve the …

It was recently suggested that proximitized gate-defined Ge hole nanowires could serve as
an alternative materials platform for the realization of topological Majorana zero modes …

We perform transport measurements on double quantum dots defined in Ge/Si core/shell
nanowires and focus on Pauli spin blockade in the regime where tens of holes occupy each …

We show a hard superconducting gap in a Ge–Si nanowire Josephson transistor up to in-
plane magnetic fields of 250 mT, an important step toward creating and detecting Majorana …

Low dimensional semiconducting structures with strong spin–orbit interaction (SOI) and
induced superconductivity attracted great interest in the search for topological …

We report a magneto-transport study of a two-dimensional hole gas confined to a strained
Ge quantum well grown on a relaxed Si 0.2 Ge 0.8 virtual substrate. The conductivity of the …

Novel heterostructures created by coupling one-dimensional semiconductor nanowires with
a superconducting thin film show great potential toward next-generation quantum …

A practical quantum computer demands a physical quantum bit (qubit) that is scalable, has a
well-defined initial state, and brings together coherence with reliable control and read-out. A …

A quantum computer requires a quantum-mechanical two-level system with coherent control
over its eigenstates. We investigate two different routes leading to quantum computational …
