Voltage-tunable singlet-triplet transition in lateral quantum dots

Abstract

Results of calculations and high source-drain transport measurements are presented which demonstrate voltage-tunable entanglement of electron pairs in lateral quantum dots. At a fixed magnetic field, the application of a judiciously-chosen gate voltage alters the ground-state of an electron pair from an entagled spin singlet to a spin triplet.Comment: 8.2 double-column pages, 10 eps figure
