Quantum control and readout

Now that you know how quantum dot qubits work it is time to learn how to operate them! In this video Menno Veldhorst (QuTech) will explain operations of readout, initialization and control on single and multi-qubits.

Prerequisite knowledge

Further Thinking 

In Elzerman readout, why can only a spin-up electron tunnel off the dot?

If spin-up electrons can selectively tunnel off the dot, then what state can we unconditionally prepare after Elzerman readout?

Solution
