Optical single-shot readout of spin qubits in silicon.

ABSTRACT: Small registers of spin qubits in silicon can exhibit hour-long coherence times and exceeded error-correction thresholds. However, their connection to larger quantum processors is an outstanding challenge. To this end, spin qubits with optical interfaces offer key advantages: they can minimize the heat load and give access to modular quantum computing architectures that eliminate cross-talk and offer a large connectivity. Here, we implement such an efficient spin-photon interface based on erbium dopants in a nanophotonic resonator. We demonstrate optical single-shot readout of a spin in silicon whose coherence exceeds the Purcell-enhanced optical lifetime, paving the way for entangling remote spins via photon interference. As erbium dopants can emit coherent photons in the minimal-loss ban
