Although several candidates have yielded feasible features for solid-state quantum information processing, there is a search for new systems with even higher potential [1].
We report that silicon vacancy (VSi) defects in silicon carbide comprise the technological advantages of semiconductor quantum dots and the unique spin properties of nitrogen-vacancy defects in diamond.
Similar to atoms, the VSi qubits can be controlled under the double radio-optical resonance conditions, allowing for selective addressing and manipulation [2]. Magnetic resonance techniques are used to clarify the VSi spin multiplicity and reveal a long spin memory.
Our results pave the way for potential applications of the VSi defect in quantum information processing and spintronics.
