Charge dynamics in two-electron quantum dots

Abstract

We investigate charge dynamics in a two-electron double quantum dot. The quantum dot is manipulated by using a time-dependent external voltage that induces charge oscillations between the dots. We study the dependence of the charge dynamics on the external magnetic field and on the periodicity of the external potential. We find that for suitable parameter values, it is possible to induce both one-electron and two-electron oscillations between the dots.
