Spin-orbit Interaction induced Singlet-Triplet Resonant Raman Transitions in Quantum-dot Helium
arXiv:1111.5460 · doi:10.1209/0295-5075/99/17009
Abstract
From our theoretical studies of resonant Raman transitions in two-electron quantum dots (artificial helium atoms) we show that in this system, the singlet-triplet Raman transitions are allowed (in polarized configuration) only in the presence of spin-orbit interactions. With an increase of the applied magnetic field this transition dominates over the singlet-singlet and triplet-triplet transitions. This intriguing effect can therefore be utilized to tune Raman transitions as well as the spin-orbit coupling in few-electron quantum dots.
