Spin coherent manipulation in Josephson weak links

Novel designs of Josephson weak links based on Tracks semiconducting nanowires combined with circuit QED techniques have enabled the resolution of their fine structure due to spin-orbit interactions, opening a path towards Andreev spin qubits.Nevertheless, direct manipulation of the spin within a given Andreev state is in general suppressed compared to interdoublet manipulation in the absence of Zeeman effects.In addition, noisy spin-flip mechanisms limit any coherent manipulation protocol to spin postselection.We propose a combination of a spin polarization protocol analogous to sideband cooling with stimulated Raman adiabatic passage specifically tailored for these systems.

We show this approach is robust for a large range of design parameters, including the currently Cotton Balls rather stringent coherence times.
