Manipulation of temporal correlations in single-electron tunneling — •Johannes C. Bayer, Adrian Schmidt, Timo Wagner, and Rolf J. Haug — Institut für Festkörperphysik, Leibniz Universität Hannover

Precisely timed single-particle operations are of critical importance for quantum technologies operating at fixed clock cycles. A detailed understanding of the interplay between an external drive and the response of the single-particle source is essential for achieving and improving the accuracy in the time domain. We here demonstrate a high level of control over the time domain of a driven single electron transistor (SET). Using a gate defined quantum dot connected to a highly sensitive charge detector [1] allows detecting electrons tunneling into and out of the SET in real-time [2, 3]. The tunneling rates of such devices are controllable by gate voltages. We drive the SET by modulating gate voltages periodically in time and use time-dependent tunneling rates [2] and waiting time distributions [4] to analyze the impact of the driving parameters on temporal correlations in the tunneling times.
