Quantum physics governs the world at the microscopic scale and determines the properties of matter. While classical computers exploit quantum phenomena passively by relying on transistor technology, the concept of a quantum computer with active control over quantum states promises unprecedented possibilities for information encoding and processing. Already developed quantum algorithms are known to perform certain tasks faster than any existing classical algorithms, and quantum computers also promise the possibility for precise simulations of complex quantum systems, a task infeasible for classical computers. These points emphasize the need for the development of quantum computers. Considering quantum computers, the fundamental unit of information is a qubit, a two-level quantum system. Qubits, in contrast to classical bits which are either in state 0 or 1, can exist in quantum superposition of the states 0 and 1, allowing for more complex and parallel computations. While there are many options to encode a logical qubit in a physical system, spin 1/2 particles are considered a natural choice because their spin degree of freedom defines a qubit intrinsically. Semiconductors are a promising platform for hosting spin qubits, as they enable the confinement of electrons with spin 1/2 either through gate-defined quantum dots (QDs) or donor atoms. Among the possible choices of donor atoms, phosphorous 31P is particularly noteworthy because its nucleus has nuclear spin 1/2. Nuclear spins are prime candidates for qubit implementation because they demonstrated exceptionally long coherence times, but the underlying good isolation from their environment is a challenge when it comes to readout and control. In this thesis, we face this challenge by proposing a hybrid quantum dot-donor (QDD) system consisting of a gate defined silicon (Si) QD and a thereto laterally displaced 31P phosphorous donor atom implanted in the Si host material. A single electron is presumed to be confined in the system, which can be moved between the QD and the donor on demand. If its wave function overlaps with the donor atom, electron spin and the donor nuclear spin interact via the hyperfine interaction and the electron can act as a mediator between the nuclear spin qubit and the environment for readout and control, whereas the nuclear spin qubit can be set in an idling mode by shifting the electron to the QD. Importantly, the proposed system can be embedded in circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) architectures enabling strong coupling between the system’s electron spin and microwave resonator photons. This coupling is fundamental for the research presented in this thesis. Analyzing the envisioned system, we first propose a novel method for nuclear-spin readout by probing the resonator transmission. This method is based on the observation that the signature of strong electron spin-photon coupling in the resonator transmission is altered due to the hyperfine interaction, in such a manner that well separated signatures for the electron spin-photon coupling conditioned on the state of the nuclear spin arise. As the next step, we turn our attention to the control of nuclear spin qubits and especially to the challenge of realizing a two-qubit gate between distant nuclear spins. In this course, we derive an effective nuclear spin-photon coupling. While expected to be weak, this interaction can be harnessed to couple the nuclear spins of two distant QDD systems dispersively to a microwave resonator resulting in an entangling nuclear spin two-qubit √iSWAP gate with a gate fidelity approaching 90%. These two key findings represent a significant and valuable contribution to the field of quantum information processing using nuclear spins.
