Abstract

We study the injection mechanism of a single electron from a static quantum dot into a moving quantum dot created in a long depleted channel with surface acoustic waves (SAWs). We demonstrate that such a process is characterized by an activation law with a threshold that depends on the SAW amplitude and the dot-channel potential gradient. By increasing sufficiently the SAW modulation amplitude, we can reach a regime where the transfer is unitary and potentially adiabatic. This study points at the relevant regime to use moving dots in quantum information protocols.
