Abstract
We show that the low lying spin states of two electrons in a semiconductor quantum dot can be strongly mixed by electron-electron asymmetric exchange. This mixing is generated by the coupling of electron spin to its orbital motion and to the relative orbital motion of the two electrons. The asymmetric exchange can be as large as 50% of the isotropic exchange, even for cylindrical quantum dots. The resulting spin mixing contributes to understanding spin dynamics in quantum dots, including light polarization reversal.
