Abstract
We consider the single- and two-electron systems confined in concentric double quantum ring (DOR) nanostructure which interacts with transient perpendicular magnetic field oscillating with THz frequency. For this purpose we find the solutions of time-dependent Schrodinger equation utilizing Configuration Interaction method. We found that the transient magnetic field mixes the radial states, what trigger off the charge density oscillations in this direction, and these may be accompanied by spin oscillations, provided that a spin-orbit interaction (SOI) is involved. The pattern of density oscillations is more regular than those obtained for single- and two-electron spins what results from less complicated excitation energy spectra if SOI is not present in the system. The latter can be made more regular, i.e. the fluctuations of frequency and amplitude of spin oscillations shall be smaller, provided that the sign of the magnetic field at the beginning of time evolution is chosen appropriately since not all energy levels corresponding to (J) over cap (-)(z) = (L) over cap (z) - (S) over cap (z) eigenstates have mirror symmetry in relation to B -> -B transformation. Our outcomes indicate, that the combined effect of a few-picosecond-long magnetic pulse and SOI on electron spin in DOR would enable one to perform transition between spin-up and spin-down states within 2 ps.
