Up to {\\em twelve} orders of magnitude variation of the spin relaxation time can be achieved by a small gate voltage applied vertically on the double dot. Different effects such as the dot size, barrier height, inter-dot distance, and magnetic field on the spin relaxation are investigated in detail. The condition to achieve a large variation is discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2006-07-13T08:48:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spin relaxation time", "small gate voltage", "coupled semiconductor double quantum dots", "magnitude variation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
