This leads to driven Rabi oscillations between the $\\ket{\\uparrow\\downarrow}$--state and the $\\ket{\\downarrow\\uparrow}$--state of the two--electron system. The width of the Rabi resonance is proportional to the amplitude of the oscillating exchange. A measurement of the Rabi resonance allows one to narrow the distribution of nuclear spin states and thereby to prolong the spin decoherence time. Further, we study decoherence of the two-electron states due to the hyperfine interaction and give requirements on the parameters of the system in order to initialize in the $\\ket{\\uparrow\\downarrow}$--state and to perform a $\\sqrt{\\mathrm{SWAP}}$ operation with unit fidelity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-03-13T12:13:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "double quantum dot", "nuclear spin state narrowing", "gate-controlled rabi oscillations", "rabi resonance", "oscillating exchange" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
