We engineer a system of two strongly confined quantum dots to gain reproducible electrostatic control of the spin at zero magnetic field. Coupling the dots in a tight ring-shaped potential with two tunnel barriers, we demonstrate that an electric field can switch the electron ground state between a singlet and a triplet configuration. Comparing our experimental co-tunneling spectroscopy data to a full many-body treatment of interacting electrons in a double-barrier quantum ring, we find excellent agreement in the evolution of many-body states with electric and magnetic fields. The calculations show that the singlet-triplet energy crossover, not found in conventionally coupled quantum dots, is made possible by the ring-shaped geometry of the confining potential.

We study two-electron states confined in two coupled quantum dots formed by a short-range potential in a two-dimensional topological insulator. It is shown that there is a fairly wide range of the system parameters, where the ground state is a triple tlike state formed by a superposition of two spin-polarized states. Outside this range, the ground state is a singlet. A transition between the singlet and triplet states can be realized by changing the potential of the quantum dots. The effect is caused by a significant change in the energies of the Coulomb repulsion and the exchange interaction of electrons due to the presence of the pseudospin components of the wave function when the band spectrum is inverted.
We report a successful measurement of the magnetic field-induced spin singlet-triplet transition in silicon-based coupled dot systems. Our specific experimental scheme incorporates a lateral gate-controlled Coulomb-blockaded structure in Si to meet t he proposed scheme of Loss and DiVincenzo [1], and a non-equilibrium single-electron tunneling technique to probe the fine energy splitting between the spin singlet and triplet, which varies as a function of applying magnetic fields and interdot coupling constant. Our results, exhibiting the singlet-triplet crossing at a magnetic field for various interdot coupling constants, are in agreement with the theoretical predictions, and give the first experimental demonstration of the possible spin swapping occurring in the coupled double dot systems with magnetic field. *Electronic address: [email protected] [1] D.

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 volta ge alters the ground-state of an electron pair from an entagled spin singlet to a spin triplet.
We investigate the lifetime of two-electron spin states in a few-electron Si/SiGe double dot. At the transition between the (1,1) and (0,2) charge occupations, Pauli spin blockade provides a readout mechanism for the spin state. We use the statistics of repeated single-shot measurements to extract the lifetimes of multiple states simultaneously. At zero magnetic field, we find that all three triplet states have equal lifetimes, as expected, and this time is ~10 ms. At non-zero field, the T0 lifetime is unchanged, whereas the T- lifetime increases monotonically with field, reaching 3 seconds at 1 T.

Based on symmetry constraint that leads to the appearance of nodes in the wave functions of 3-electron systems at regular triangle configurations, it was found that, if the parameters of confinement are skillfully given and if a magnetic field is tun ed around the critical point of the singlet-triplet transition, a 2-electron quantum dot can be used as a highly sensitive switch for single-electron transport.
