Abstract
The electrical detection of spin echoes via echo tomography is used to observe coherent processes associated with the electrical readout of the spin state of phosphorus donor electrons in silicon near a interface. Using the Carr-Purcell pulse sequence, an echo decay with a time constant of is observed and discussed in terms of decoherence and recombination times. Electrical spin echo tomography thus can be used to study the dynamics of the spin-dependent transport processes, e.g., in realistic spin qubit devices for quantum information processing.
