【 摘 要 】

We demonstrate the initialization of a single quantum-dot hole spin with high fidelity ( lower bound > 97%), on picosecond time scales, and without the need for magnetic fields. Using the initialization scheme based on rapid electric-field ionization of a resonantly excited exciton, this is achieved by employing a self-assembled quantum dot with a low conduction-to-valence band offset ratio, allowing control of the relative electron and hole tunneling rates over three orders of magnitude. This large difference in tunneling rates could permit spin-storage efficiencies >99.5% by fast-switching to a low electric-field condition. Our results may provide a practical route towards ultrafast high-fidelity initialization of individual quantum-dot hole spins for the implementation of quantum error correction in a scalable spin-based quantum computer.
