Electron Orbital Model01:18

Electron Orbital Model

71.9K
Orbitals are the areas outside of the atomic nucleus where electrons are most likely to reside. They are characterized by different energy levels, shapes, and three-dimensional orientations. The location of electrons is described most generally by a shell or principal energy level, then by a subshell within each shell, and finally, by individual orbitals found within the subshells.
The first shell is closest to the nucleus, and it has only one subshell with a single spherical orbital called the...

The Energies of Atomic Orbitals

29.9K
In an atom, the negatively charged electrons are attracted to the positively charged nucleus. In a multielectron atom, electron-electron repulsions are also observed. The attractive and repulsive forces are dependent on the distance between the particles, as well as the sign and magnitude of the charges on the individual particles. When the charges on the particles are opposite, they attract each other. If both particles have the same charge, they repel each other.

Atomic Orbitals

43.4K
An atomic orbital represents the three-dimensional regions in an atom where an electron has the highest probability to reside. The radial distribution function indicates the total probability of finding an electron within the thin shell at a distance r from the nucleus. The atomic orbitals have distinct shapes which are determined by l, the angular momentum quantum number. The orbitals are often drawn with a boundary surface, enclosing densest regions of the cloud.

Area of Science:

  • Quantum Information Science
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is weak in bulk silicon but enhanced in nanostructures like quantum dots.
  • Enhanced SOC in quantum dots is crucial for spin qubits but attributed to various interface effects.
  • Understanding these effects is key for developing uniform and controllable spin qubits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To probe and differentiate spin-orbit coupling mechanisms in silicon double-quantum-dot qubits.
  • To investigate the influence of magnetic field orientation on intravalley and intervalley SOC.
  • To identify additional spin-flip mechanisms, such as tunneling, impacting qubit performance.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a double-quantum-dot qubit system to compare spins of separated singlet-triplet electron pairs.
  • Analyzed spin dynamics under different magnetic field orientations ([110] and [100]).
  • Characterized intravalley, intervalley, and tunneling-induced spin-flip mechanisms.

Main Results:

  • Observed distinct intravalley and intervalley spin-orbit coupling mechanisms.
  • Found that intravalley mechanisms dominate for [110] and intervalley for [100] magnetic field orientations.
  • Identified a third spin-flip mechanism resulting from inter-dot tunneling.

Conclusions:

  • The observed mechanisms align with a broken crystal symmetry model for enhanced SOC in silicon quantum dots.
  • This research provides critical insights into qubit uniformity, spin control, and decoherence.
  • The findings are essential for the advancement of two-qubit gates and scalable quantum computing architectures.
