Abstract
Double quantum dots (DQDs) systems may be the minimal setups for realization of QD-based qubits and quantum computation. Pauli spin blockade (PSB) and a kind of novel many-body tunneling (MBT) are identified to play important roles in these systems, and dominate the quantum tunneling at moderate and weak interdot coupling t, respectively. On the other hand, inter-dot Coulomb interaction U′ and related inter-dot Coulomb blockade (IDCB) is inevitable in DQDs. However, what would happen on the effect of U′ in DQDs has not been touched, in particular for PSB and MBT. Here, we study the tunneling processes and transport properties with various U′ in series-coupled DQDs, and find MBT process is rather robust against U′ within U′/U < 0.1, where U is the intra-dot Coulomb interaction. Meanwhile, the linearity relationship between the carrier doublon number and MBT current remains valid. These findings enrich the understanding of the many-body tunneling in the DQDs and may shed light on the manipulation of the QD-based qubits.
