Complete readout of two-electron spin states in a double quantum dot

We propose and demonstrate complete spin state readout of a two-electron system in a double quantum dot probed by an electrometer. The protocol is based on repetitive single shot measurements using Pauli spin blockade and our ability to tune on fast timescales the detuning and the interdot tunnel coupling between the GHz and sub-Hz regime. A sequence of three distinct manipulations and measurements allows establishing if the spins are in S, Tzero, Tplus or Tminus state. This work points at a procedure to reduce the overhead for spin readout, an important challenge for scaling up spin qubit platforms.
