Abstract
Electric dipole spin resonance (EDSR) is a commonly used tool for manipulation and spectroscopy of quantum-dot-based spin qubits. When an EDSR experiment is embedded in a transport setup and Pauli spin blockade is used as means for spin-state read-out, then measured resonant responses in the leakage current indeed carry information about the level structure of the system under study. However, the actual line shape of these current resonances differs substantially from experiment to experiment, varying from being symmetric to asymmetric and from being a peak to a dip, a thorough understanding of which is still lacking. Here, we investigate theoretically the detailed line shape of EDSR-induced resonances in the leakage current in the regime of spin blockade, and we connect different line shapes to the different underlying physical mechanisms that can enable the EDSR. We carry out both numerical and analytical investigations, producing simple analytic expressions that give insight in the physics at play. Our results thus provide a means to extract more information about the detailed system parameters of quantum dots hosting spin qubits from an EDSR experiment than just their level structure based on the location of the resonances.
