Spin-Photon Coupling in a Double Quantum Dot    [PDF]

Xuedong Hu, Yu-xi Liu, Franco Nori
We study electron-spin-photon coupling in a single-spin double quantum dot embedded in a superconducting stripline cavity. With an external magnetic field, we show that either a spin-orbit interaction (for InAs) or an inhomogeneous magnetic field (for Si and GaAs) could produce a strong spin-photon coupling, with a coupling strength of the order of 1 MHz. With an isotopically purified Si double dot, which has a very long spin coherence time for the electron, it might be possible to reach the strong-coupling limit between the spin and the cavity photon, as in cavity quantum electrodynamics. The coupling strength and relaxation rates are calculated based on parameters of existing devices, making this proposal experimentally feasible.
