Zusammenfassung
On-chip magnets can be used to implement relatively large local magnetic field gradients in nanoelectronic circuits. Such field gradients provide possibilities for all-electrical control of electron spin qubits where important coupling constants depend crucially on the detailed field distribution. We present a double quantum dot (QD) hybrid device laterally defined in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure which incorporates two single-domain nanomagnets. They have appreciably different coercive fields which allows us to realize four distinct configurations of the local inhomogeneous field distribution. We perform dc transport spectroscopy in the Pauli-spin blockade regime as well as electric-dipole-induced spin resonance (EDSR) measurements to explore our hybrid nanodevice. Characterizing the two nanomagnets we find excellent agreement with numerical simulations. By comparing the EDSR measurements with a second double QD incorporating just one nanomagnet we reveal an important advantage of having one magnet per QD: It facilitates strong field gradients in each QD and allows us to control the electron spins individually for instance in an EDSR experiment. With just one single-domain nanomagnet and common QD geometries EDSR can likely be performed only in one QD.
