On the Spin States of Electrons in a Double Quantum Dot in a Two-Dimensional Topological Insulator with Spin-Orbit Interaction

详细

The spectra and spin structure of the states of two interacting electrons localized in a double quantum dot in a two-dimensional topological insulator with spin-orbit interaction are investigated. It is found that, in such a system, a singlet-triplet transition in the ground state without a magnetic field can be implemented. Spin-orbit interaction leads to the splitting of polarized triplet levels and to anticrossing, when one of them crosses the singlet.
