Abstract

The ability to manipulate the spin states of charges confined in quantum dots (QDs) is essential for the realization of a quantum computer based on such spins. Here, we present experimentally realized electron spin qubit gates in a single self-assembled InAs QD using a combination of picosecond optical pulses, spin precession about an external DC magnetic field and optically generated geometric phases. Arbitrary unitary operations on the electron spin qubit may be constructed using a combination of optical pulses and either spin precession or the optically generated geometric phases.
