The effect of spin-orbit coupling is incorporated into a modified interdot tunnel coupling. We elucidate the role of the external magnetic field, the nuclear fields in the dots, and spin relaxation. We find qualitative agreement with experimental observations, and we propose a way to extend the range of magnetic fields in which blockade can be observed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-05-12T11:54:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "71.70.Ej", "73.63.Kv", "72.25.-b" ], "keywords": [ "strong spin-orbit coupling", "pauli spin blockade regime", "study electron transport", "external magnetic field", "double quantum dot" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "doi": "10.1103/PhysRevB.80.041301", "year": 2009, "month": "Jul", "volume": 80, "number": 4, "pages": "041301" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvB..80d1301D" } } }
