New preprint

December 9, 2025

Dealing with residual exchange in your spin qubits?Not to worry — we’ve got you covered! Our new preprint explores how to tame residual exchange in singlet–triplet qubits. We introduce two…

Congratulations Dr. Ye!

September 19, 2025

Congratulations to Dr. Feiyang Ye, who defended his thesis entitled “Towards understanding charge noise in Si/SiGe quantum dots!” We will miss you, and we wish you all the best!

New preprint

September 16, 2025

Check out our new preprint on using two-level fluctuators in Si quantum dots as temperature probes. Our community has known for a while that voltage pulses heat our qubits, but…

Welcome new students!

Welcome to new graduate students Malick Gaye, Fernando Torres Leal, and Zhengyang Zhang. We are excited to have you join the group!

Charge noise paper published

Our paper on using feedback to make noisy fluctuators in silicon quantum dots quieter has been published in Physical Review Applied.

New paper

February 5, 2025

Our paper on the formation of a nuclear-spin dark state in silicon has been published in Nature Physics. We show that using the electrons in quantum dots, we can drive…

New paper

December 11, 2024

Check out our most recent paper: an Editors’ suggestion in Physical Review B about electrical fluctuations in silicon quantum dots.

New paper

December 10, 2024

Our paper on dynamically corrected gates in singlet-triplet qubits has been published as an editors’ suggestion in Physical Review Applied. This work is a collaboration with the group of Ed…

Fridges

December 7, 2024

Welcome to one more dilution refrigerator. The fridges are done multiplying…for a while anyway.

Welcome new fridges!

October 18, 2024

Welcome to the newest members of our group: a 1.5K cryostat and a new dilution refrigerator!

How to tame your TLF

Have TLFs (two-level fluctuators) in your qubits? Want to take charge and get rid of noise from them? Check out our newest preprint, where we show how to stabilize your…

Farewell Xinxin!

Thank you, Xinxin, for spending time with the Nichol Group as a postdoc! We were glad to get to know you and work with you. We wish you the best…
