Main Results:

Related Experiment Videos

  • Hole state switching is controlled by inter-dot distance and magnetic field.
  • A ground-state crossing is observed at perpendicular magnetic fields of a few Tesla.
  • This crossing manifests as a distinct jump in magnetization.

Conclusions:

  • The studied quantum dot molecule system exhibits controllable ground states.
  • These ground states are a promising candidate for implementing quantum gates.
