摘要:
Radio-frequency reflectometry techniques enable high-bandwidth readout of semiconductor quantum dots. Careful impedance matching of the resonant circuit is required to achieve high sensitivity, which, however, proves challenging at cryogenic temperatures. Gallium arsenide-based voltage-tunable capacitors, so-called varactor diodes, can be used for in situ tuning of the circuit impedance but deteriorate and fail at temperatures below 10 K and in magnetic fields. Here, we investigate a varactor based on strontium titanate with a hyperabrupt capacitance-voltage characteristic, i.e., a capacitance tunability similar to the best gallium arsenide-based devices. The varactor design introduced here is compact, scalable, and easy to wire bond, with an accessible capacitance range from 45 pF to 3.2 pF. We tune a resonant inductor-capacitor circuit to perfect impedance matching and observe robust temperature- and field-independent matching down to 11 mK and up to 2 T in-plane field. Finally, we perform gate-dispersive charge sensing on a germanium-silicon core-shell nanowire hole double quantum dot, paving the way toward gate-based single-shot spin readout. Our results bring small magnetic field-resilient highly tunable varactors to mK temperatures, expanding the toolbox of cryo-radio-frequency applications. © 2023 American Physical Society.
