Quantum technology concepts rely on efficient control of the system state, such as the electron spin. Here the authors present a mechanism for spin and orbital manipulation based on hybridizing quantum dot states at two points inside InAs nanowires, resulting in tunable quantum rings with giant controllable g-factors.
