Dark Bell states in tunnel-coupled spin qubits

Abstract

We investigate the dynamical purification of maximally entangled electron states by transport through coupled quantum dots. Under resonant ac driving and coherent tunneling, even-parity Bell states perform Rabi oscillations that decouple from the environment, leading to a dark state. The two electrons remain spatially separated, one in each quantum dot. We propose configurations where this effect will prove as antiresonances in transport spectroscopy experiments.
