We observe a continuous transition from a Kondo state exhibiting a single-peak Kondo resonance to another exhibiting a double peak by increasing the inter-dot-coupling (t) in a parallel-coupled DQD. The transition into the double-peak state provides evidence for spin-entanglement between the excess-electron on each dot. Toward the transition, the peak splitting merges and becomes substantially smaller than t because of strong Coulomb effects. Our device tunability bodes well for future quantum computation applications.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-05-13T15:54:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum states", "transition", "parallel-coupled double-quantum-dot", "quantum computation applications", "strong coulomb effects" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
