We find that after a fast switching, the relaxation of charge and spin are governed by a single time constant each, which differ from each other due to Coulomb repulsion. We compare the response to a step potential with the $RC$ time extracted from the ac response.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-04-30T08:09:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.23.-b" ], "keywords": [ "interacting quantum dots", "spin dynamics", "gate potential", "strong coulomb interaction", "single time constant" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2010, "month": "Apr", "volume": 81, "number": 16, "pages": 165318 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010PhRvB..81p5318S" } } }
