A narrow spin excitation peak is observed and assigned to the intershell triplet-to-singlet monopole mode of dots with four electrons. Configurationinteraction theory provides precise quantitative interpretations that uncover large correlation effects that are comparable to exchange Coulomb interactions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-09-07T09:37:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "few-electron quantum dots", "report inelastic light scattering measurements", "narrow spin excitation peak", "uncover large correlation effects", "intershell triplet-to-singlet monopole mode" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
