Sensitivity of entanglement decay of quantum-dot spin qubits to the external magnetic field
PublicationWe study the decay of entanglement of quantum-dot electron-spin qubits under hyperfine-interaction-mediated decoherence.We show that two-qubit entanglement of a single entangled initial state may exhibit decay characteristic of two disentanglement regimes in a single sample, when the externalmagnetic field is changed. The transition is manifested by the suppression of time-dependent entanglement oscillations which are superimposed...
