Effect of inelastic scattering on spin entanglement detection through current noise
arXiv:cond-mat/0601365 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.74.045305
Abstract
We study the effect of inelastic scattering on the spin entanglement detection and discrimination scheme proposed by Egues, Burkard, and Loss [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{89}, 176401 (2002)]. The finite-backscattering beam splitter geometry is supplemented by a phenomenological model for inelastic scattering, the charge-conserving voltage probe model, conveniently generalized to deal with entangled states. We find that the behavior of shot-noise measurements in one of the outgoing leads remains an efficient way to characterize the nature of the non-local spin correlations in the incoming currents for an inelastic scattering probability up to 50%. Higher order cumulants are analyzed, and are found to contain no additional useful information on the spin correlations. The technique we have developed is applicable to a wide range of systems with voltage probes and spin correlations.
