摘要
We investigate the spin state of a GaAs lateral quantum dot (QD) by using strongly asymmetric tunnel barriers. The saturated current depends on the current polarity, which switches the direction of the dominant tunneling transition that increases or decreases the total spin. With this technique, the spin polarization and the Coulomb interaction are investigated. We find that high spin states appearing in some magnetic field regions can be understood by considering simple Coulomb interactions.
