We study spin relaxation in a two-electron quantum dot in the vicinity of the singlet-triplet crossing. The spin relaxation occurs due to a combined effect of the spin-orbit, Zeeman, and electron-phonon interactions. The singlet-triplet relaxation rates exhibit strong variations as a function of the singlet-triplet splitting. We show that the Coulomb interaction between the electrons has two competing effects on the singlet-triplet spin relaxation. One effect is to enhance the relative strength of spin-orbit coupling in the quantum dot, resulting in larger spin-orbit splittings and thus in a stronger coupling of spin to charge. The other effect is to make the charge density profiles of the singlet and triplet look similar to each other, thus diminishing the ability of charge environments to discriminate between singlet and triplet states. We thus find essentially different channels of singlet-triplet relaxation for the case of strong and weak Coulomb interaction. Finally, for the linear in momentum Dresselhaus and Rashba spin-orbit interactions, we calculate the singlet-triplet relaxation rates to leading order in the spin-orbit interaction, and find that they are proportional to the second power of the Zeeman energy, in agreement with recent experiments on triplet-to-singlet relaxation in quantum dots.

We estimate the triplet-singlet relaxation rate due to spin-orbit coupling assisted by phonon emission in weakly-confined quantum dots. Our results for two and four electrons show that the different triplet-singlet relaxation trends observed in recen
t experiments under magnetic fields can be understood within a unified theoretical description, as the result of the competition between spin-orbit coupling and phonon emission efficiency. Moreover, we show that both effects are greatly affected by the strength of the confinement and the external magnetic field, which may give access to very long-lived triplet states as well as to selective population of the triplet Zeeman sublevels.
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.
We measure singlet-triplet mixing in a precision fabricated double donor dot comprising of 2 and 1 phosphorus atoms separated by $16{pm}1$ nm. We identify singlet and triplet-minus states by performing sequential independent spin readout of the two e
lectron system and probe its dependence on magnetic field strength. The relaxation of singlet and triplet states are measured to be $12.4{pm}1.0$ s and $22.1{pm}1.0$ s respectively at $B_z{=}2.5$ T.
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.

Recently, singlet-triplet measurements in double dots have emerged as a powerful tool in quantum information processing. In parallel, quantum dot arrays are being envisaged as analog quantum simulators of many-body models. Thus motivated, we explore
the potential of the above singlet-triplet measurements for probing and exploiting the ground-state of a Heisenberg spin chain in such a quantum simulator. We formulate an efficient protocol to discriminate the achieved many-body ground-state with other likely states. Moreover, the transition between quantum phases, arising from the addition of frustrations in a $J_1-J_2$ model, can be systematically explored using the same set of measurements. We show that the proposed measurements have an application in producing long distance heralded entanglement between well separated quantum dots. Relevant noise sources, such as non-zero temperatures and nuclear spin interactions, are considered.
