Dynamical decoupling for spin qubits

Pulse sequences can cancel slow fluctuations.

01 / Mathematical framework
$$U_{\rm echo}=e^{-iH\tau}X e^{-iH\tau}$$

Physical intuition

Pulse sequences can cancel slow fluctuations.

Deep dive: physical mechanism

A spin echo reverses phase accumulation from approximately static longitudinal noise.

What is measured experimentally?

Echo and CPMG decay reveal noise spectra.

Assumptions, noise and limitations

Pulses cannot remove all fast noise and may introduce control errors.

Research and simulation exercise

Compare Ramsey and echo under quasistatic noise.
