Phys. Rev. B 80, 165311 (2009) [6 pages]Adiabatic pumping in a double quantum dot structure with strong spin-orbit interactionReceived 16 March 2009; revised 17 July 2009; published 7 October 2009 We theoretically investigate the adiabatic pumping in a double quantum dot structure in the presence of strong spin-orbit interaction. Pumping single electrons through a Pauli spin-blockade configuration in the presence of a transverse magnetic field allows to probe the spin-dynamics. We discuss how the pumping efficiency could quantitatively provide evidence of the spin-orbit interaction in double dots and renders appealing its presence for qubit operations. © 2009 The American Physical Society URL:
