Multielectron spin qubits are demonstrated, and performance examined by comparing coherent exchange oscillations in coupled single-electron and multielectron quantum dots, measured in the same device. Fast (>1 GHz) exchange oscillations with a quality factor Q∼15 are found for the multielectron case, compared to Q∼2 for the single-electron case, the latter consistent with experiments in the literature. A model of dephasing that includes voltage and hyperfine noise is developed that is in good agreement with both single- and multielectron data, though in both cases additional exchange-independent dephasing is needed to obtain quantitative agreement across a broad parameter range.
