Tunable RKKY interaction in a double quantum dot nanoelectromechanical device

arXiv:1706.08389 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.97.035418

Abstract

We propose a realization of mechanically tunable Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida interaction in a double quantum dot nanoelectromechanical device. The coupling between spins of two quantum dots suspended above a metallic plate is mediated by conduction electrons. We show that the spin-mechanical interaction can be driven by a slow modulation of charge density in the metallic plate. We propose to use Stuckelberg oscillations as a sensitive tool for detection of the spin and charge states of the coupled quantum dots. Theory of mechanical back action induced by a dynamical spin-spin interaction is discussed.
